I'm not allowed to give a full trace, NDA and stuff. The rec_control
command can help though. I'll see what I can dig up from the
environment when I'm able to access it again.

The slow speed could be the cause, as there are low speed high latency
links between the recursor and the root servers. How do I disable that
speed check in PowerDNS?

Alas, upgrading is not an option, as the environment is 'frozen'. The
environment needs to work as-is for at least 1.5 years. All we can do
is tweak settings. I'm already happy we could abandon 4.0 last year.
