Hello,
We are running bind 8.2.2P5 on a Linux System (kernel 2.2.14).
At any given time we have about 600 concurrent connections hitting the DNS
server. It seems that at peak times the server takes longer to respond to
DNS lookup requests. Therefore, I was wondering if I've reached at point
where I have to upgrade and/or distribute the load.
Here are some numbers:
This server is authoritative for 650 Internet Domain names and provides DNS
services to 600 concurrent customers.
The machine is a 350 MHZ Pentium II with 128 MB of RAM an SCSI drives. It
connects to the network at 100MB Full duplex.
Here is a snip from the message log:
