Most "broadband routers" will provide basic DNS relaying, and if youI should have been more clear on this. The router is used as a

usually specify the IP address of your ISPs DNS server instead on
the machine that you are running Analog on. That might improve
matters.
pass-through, it does not use DHCP. Furthermore, there is a fully
active name server on the machine. the ISPs DNS servers are listed as
secondary. So, unfortunately, your solution does not help.
I think the best solution is to make analog be more subtle with its
DNS requests. However I could not find any rate limiting options. Any
suggestions?
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.
You could add DEBUG +G to the settings to get a statement of each DNS lookup that Analog makes. This should help you determine the rate of requests.
