Contents Intro.

The Domain Name System is an integral part of the Internet infrastructure. Authoritative DNS servers are responsible for mapping the domain names to IPv4 and/or IPv6 addresses. BIND is undoubtedly the most well-known and widely used authoritative DNS server implementation. However, it has much higher performance alternatives. This presentation is about the performance analysis of four authoritative DNS server implementations: BIND, NSD, Knot DNS, and YADIFA. The performance measurement method is taken from RFC 8219. Various performance factors are considered: the number of CPU cores, the size of the zone file, the timeout value and also the architecture of the CPU. Several different issues of BIND are pointed out. Both NSD and Knot DNS are shown to have about one order of magnitude higher performance than BIND or YADIFA.
