Is there any way to force named to load faster, or load in threads? Or any way to create a db file reading from the zone files that can be loaded faster? similar to the way the sendmail databases work? I have over 100,000 zones and it takes named around 25 minutes to load on a dual PIII 1ghz with 2 gigs of ram, I'm looking to cut down on that time. Any ideas? -d
