Well yes I will need over 100k zones eventually. But right now it is only 50k
for testing purposes.
The strange part is that this works perfect on a setup (many more zones) where
there is no anycast and it just uses the NS records for the NOTIFY ( 5 NS
records). These anycast servers are much more powerful so I wouldn't expect
them to get stuck in pending NOTIFY locks.
Is it possible to clear out the queue of the notifies?
