Well... i tried bind 8/9 and djb on same hw (os: linux) and it was faster.
I used queryperf (comes with bind source - /contrib)
BTW: i am running bind 9.21. :]
If only djb's sw would be free so ppl could just download a binary package
for their OS. (i would love to type 'apt-get install djbdns' one day....)

"BIND 9 is now fully multithreaded, allowing full utilization of
multiprocessor systems for installations that need it."
So bind9 should work better on smp systems ?
And I have no smp machine to test. Anyone else ?
What i like about V9 are views, but i found a problem when i use same zone
files on different views - i just get strange errors or no zone transfers...
