BTW, glibc has a "rotate" option that load-balances across the list of
nameservers - but this option only applies when starting a new lookup
[1]. In the timeout case, a new nameserver is always tried [2].

what user applications can do, not what BIND itself does.)

Hi,
I'm interested in what happens when a freshly created evdns with more than
one nameserver encounters a timeout on the first request.
It seems evdns distinguishes between retransmits and reissues. Retransmits
are triggered by timeouts and always point to the same ns, chosen at
first-transmit t
