Delays in main site DNS lookup?
Authored by: houchin on Apr 09, '02 03:37:15PM

I was running eDexter, so the return of the pages wasn't the problem. The delay was in the initial IP lookup of the main site. My guess is that with 8000 entries in my machines netinfo directory, it was taking a while to get to the point where it fell through to the DNSAgent.

I've gone back to the old system for now. I'm on broadband both at home and work, and the delays for hostname lookup were worse than the time spent downloading the ads.
