Also the configuration. You can reduce your memory usage significantly
using the "host-statistics no" option.
Here's one of our authoritative servers, hosting over 32,000 zones:
PID USERNAME THR PRI NICE SIZE RES STATE TIME CPU COMMAND
26995 root 1 -14 0 372M 334M run 670.1H 46.15% named
and here's one of our caching servers, handing 300-400 queries/sec, and
which has been up for over 3 weeks:
PID USERNAME THR PRI NICE SIZE RES STATE TIME CPU COMMAND
14083 root 1 -4 0 284M 271M run 81.5H 29.27% named
We have host-statistics disabled on the caching server.
Both of these are running BIND 8, not BIND 9, but I suspect the results
would be similar.
