It's extremely unlikely that you could make Analog any more rate limited
than it currently is - my understanding is that Analog only makes 1 DNS
request at a time, which is why allowing Analog to do DNS lookups takes
so long. That's why the documentation recommends that you use a helper
app to do the DNS lookups instead of having Analog do them.
