I looked at my zone transfer logs, which give the size of each IXFR following a zone update. If you don't have any ixfr logs, then you can use `named-journalprint` and look at the number of consecutive "add" and "del" lines in each update. The reason the sig-signing-* options don't have much effect on the size of signing increments is a combination of two things: Firstly, `named` adds random jitter to re-signing times to spread out the load, and when this is combined with small sig-signing-* values and incremental updates, the signing schedule will become increasingly fragmented; Secondly, there isn't any option to de-fragment signing times, so that small updates get re-signed in bigger chunks. I inherited a patch from Chris Thompson to increase the hardcoded value in `stop = now + 5` (see link below). This is what controls how much defragmentation can happen - 5 seconds is not much! IIRC we adjusted it to 300 (5 minutes) but even something like 3600 would be reasonable, I think, because then the sig-signing-* options would be the main limit on re-signing work. https://gitlab.isc.org/isc-projects/bind9/blob/master/lib/dns/zone.c#L6787 I no longer use this patch because it's easier to run unpatched BIND in production, and I didn't think it was important enough to turn into a configuration option. Maybe I was wrong :-) Tony. -- f.anthony.n.finch <[email protected]> http://dotat.at/ Irish Sea, Shannon: Southwest 5 to 7, increasing gale 8 at times.
