Hi Daniel..

I know.. especially the nsec3 chain would be very tricky to parallelize..
But it is no problem.. it is not a must have for us.. because we want so sign with increments, I think the duration would be negligible.


Thanks a lot for your great work.. :)

best regards

Hi Christian,

We plan some speed up of DNSSEC signing, but we have to invent proper design of it first.
Zone signing consists of more steps and some of them are difficult to parallelize.

Best,
Daniel
