I do wonder about the purpose of the recursor in the
recursor -> dnsdist -> upstream-recursive
case. You might as well use
dnsdist -> upstream-recursive
With a caching dnsdist.
Unless you need recursor specific functionality, of course.
It was my impression that dnsdist was meant for smaller caches not for
large caches in the order of several GB of cached records (with
prefetching and DNSSEC validation functionality)
but if we can remove something in the chain that might probably benefit
latency, CPU usage and reduce complexity, so I'm very open for suggestions.
I've also some generic question about cache sizing that I'll put in a
second email.
We will also publish our entire setup and what we are actually aiming to
achieve with it. We find it wonderful that dnsdist allows us to offer
multiple DNS privacy services with distinct privacy properties using a
single dnsdist configuration.
best regards,
Christoph
