I have not set up a secondary name server (caching) but I plan to. Our proxy server is querying my one-and-only dns but often queries time out. Is there a way to optimize the performance of the dns? The same box handles httpd, postfix, and spamd, so I realize there may not be much else I could do. Thanks.
