Is this really true, a 400mhz G3 is not enough to do DNS? I was planning on
moving to just this hardware, a imac as a mnatter of fact, just for DNS, I
can not see DNS needing more, I currently run on a 233 G3 under OS 9 and it
was always told to me that is way overkill.

I know some people running Bind on 90Mhz under much heavier load than I ever
will. Is there something new about QDNS that needs a lot of horsepower?
