Unlike named, unbound is intended to serve only one client (localhost) or a small number of clients (a SOHO). With that kind of load, one could be ten times slower than the other and you wouldn't notice, because other factors, like network latency, completely dwarf the time the nameserver itself spends servicing a request. (note that I fully expect unbound to hold its own on corporate networks with thousands of clients, but I doubt my boss is going to let me run performance comparisons on the university's network) DES --=20 Dag-Erling Sm=C3=B8rgrav - des@des.no
