If this one is your dedicated DNS server ( no other activity other than OS
related ), should be OK.

That's about 500 QP/second, even if that was all recursive traffic, you
shouldn't have any problem with a Sun v210 with that load. With a decent
config I've tested a v210 at over 1400 queries per second with about a 60%
cache hit rate.
