Hello Bert, We are running PowerDNS 4.1.3 and have tested against MySQL 5.1.73 en PostgreSQL 10.4. It runs on CentOS 6.9, tested with both kernel versions `2.6.32-696.20.1.el6.x86_64` and `4.15.13-x86_64-linode106`.
Running bench-db for all domains reports: 1.32192 millisecond/lookup Retrieved 31554 records, did 10000 queries which should have no match Packet cache reports: 0 hits (should be 0) and 0 misses In the output of dnsgram are many lines like this, especially during the performance drops: 2018-07-05 16:12:12: Auth server dropped too many questions (683 vs 151), diff: 532 I could put the output files somewhere online if needed. dnsscope produces the following output: PCAP contained 948599 correct packets, 10 runts, 0 oversize, 0 non-UDP.
