Good evening, all, It's still early in the project, but a few quick observations. Using dnstop and tethereal, I've seen that in the last 24 hours we've had 570K DNS queries to slart, the 5th/6th nameserver for {sa,sc}.surbl.org. 84% of those - 475K queries - have been to surbl.org. The next closest was in-addr.arpa with 12K and 7500 or less for everything else (that "everything else" category includes being a primary or secondary for 130 other domains and the primary nameserver for 28 machines). Of that 475K, 400K were to sc.surbl.org and 43K to sa.surbl.org. I suppose the rest were to jeff.chan.rox.surbl.org. *smile* More recent nameserver stats show the RBL is hovering around 90.2% of the queries to that nameserver.
Oh, and did I mention that the nameserver is running on one of 27 User-Mode Linux virtual machines (*) running on top of a dual 1.4Ghz P3? The host machine load runs from 3.0 - 5.0 (but 2 of that is from the distributed.net CPU sponge, so really the load is 1.0 - 3.0). It'll be interesting to see just how high the load goes as more people come on, especially when SA 3.0 comes out. *gulp* :-) Cheers, - Bill
