"BIND 9.2.0 introduces a number of new features over
9.1, including:

The size of the cache can now be limited using the
"max-cache-size" option." 

If updating isn't an option at this time, maybe a
script that does a ndc restart every so often.

There is also a cache cleaning option in 8 and 9 that,
if adjusted, may help remove stale records but it does
take cpu time. It defaults at 60 minute intervals.

or buy more memory ;-)
