	Certainly, you could get into SLB L4 devices once you get past a 
couple thousand DNS queries per second (basically, building a more 
intelligent version of the caching nameserver farm I built for AOL, 
each copy of BIND being able to handle on the order of 2000 queries 
per second or more, and a total of sixteen copies of BIND running 
across four DEC Alpha 4100s with four processors and 4GB of RAM per 
machine), but at the very least up until the 2000 query per second 
range, there's no sense trying to do that.
