Shrug. Just because BIND has been doing something for years,
that doesn't necessarily makes it right.
And "just doing it differently because you can" doesn't make it right
either... there's quite a strong argument to be made for "deliver data
the same way people have given it to you" - a SQL database that all of
a sudden would lowercase all names stored in it would also raise a few
eyebrows, no?
And in the end when you
are under DDoS attack you will care more about the DNS server
performance than the CaMeL casing you put into the zone. Just
sayin'...
I can't see why lowercasing the *response* would make performance better...
Lowercasing the record that's being looked up - definitely so.
Anyway. Thanks for providing Knot - it's good to have the option, even if
it is not what makes *us* happy today.
