Re: [knot-dns-users] Knot DNS 1.5.0 first release candidate!

Hi Anand, I see this could be a problem, is the backoff causing the delays for failed zone transfers? There is a configuration option "background-workers" with which you can limit the number of parallel requests, but if you can email me some statistics about failed/passed transfers and transfers/second we can probably work out some more clever queuing.
