>>  Apologies if I misunderstood your setup. I’ve also encountered memory
issues in recent BIND versions — BIND 9.18.33 on Debian 12 is a tremendous
beast, capable of handling millions of QPS — but after reducing logging
(including DNSTAP) and disabling serve-stale, I saw a significant
improvement in both performance and memory usage.

Sorry, there's 295,108 hosts I'm serving up as 127.0.0.1 (for ad blocking).

I zipped my entire /etc/bind directory (which includes all configs).  It's
available to download here:
