I made a switch from bind to djbdns about 5 months ago and will
never go back to bind. Tinydns is stable, fast, and the program 'obeys'
my commands immediately. I was never sure if bind 9.x would completely
implement anything it was told to do or not.

Your biggest hurdle will be changing your mindset to accomodate a
different way of managing dns. Once you understand how it is implemented,
you will be amazed at the simplicity. Work through the docs and set 
it up on a test machine inside your lan. When you are comfortable with
it, then consider a switchover. That would be my advice, YMMV.
