I would've thought it would be more a matter of server load than network
load. Put another way, if every one of UUNet's customers queried UUNet's
server instead of mine, my DNS load would be significantly lighter. Not
that it's bad, mind you, but I'm also not serving DNS for many wildly
popular domains.

That returned 2756 matches. I'll be back sometime next month. :)
