Behavior of a slave to a NOTIFY

What would delay a slave responding to a notify?  More importantly, what 
would delay a slave from transferring a zone after verifying the 
master's serial for the zone is newer than the serial the slave has?

I've looked over the bug fixes as accumulated by the latest revisions 
for the 9.[2-7].x releases and see there have been some fixes to code 
related to notifies and zone transfers.

Is it safe to say a busy BIND 9.5.x slave performing lots of zone 
transfers retrieves zones (from a master) more timely than a similarly 
busy 9.2.x slave?

Regards,
Richard
