Re: DNS

I can only speak from my experiance but if you are using a major ISP who
might have rather busy nameservers and you send a lot of traffic to the
same destinations repeatedly, yeah, having a cacheing nameserver can
really speed performance.  This is particularly true of you are on the end
of a slow link.

Why is it that the same people that tell us that manned space flight
is a waste of money also tell us that we have been visited by aliens?
