I wonder if you in that specific example (the stackexchange one) are
hitting some limit in the dns resolver since "domains/s=161.98" which is
the max value there would be something like (1 event for dns reply, 1 for
connect, 1 for write is what I'm guesstimating at here) ~486 events in
epoll per second is not much events at all.

I wouldn't be at all surprised if public DNS servers such as the Cloudflare
and Google one used in your example have some kind of rate limiting.
