yes, but it doesn't scale well. Editing by hand or CF writing out a
1000 or 10,000 or 100K line named.conf text is pretty dumb. It's
clearly a database pb, so that's why BIND9 has a database API and can
read the zone data right out of the database.
Unlike BIND8, BIND9 can also start serving data while it's starting
up and reading in the zone data.
The A root server, for the .com TLD, has at least two NS records and
two A glue records for each of 20+ million .com domains.
