Isn't that why HTTP, SMTP, and other TCP transaction services have been changed to reduce the ratio of TCP connections to transactions? Isn't it also true that DNS transactions are much lighter weight than HTTP, SMTP, ando other TCP transaction applications? Could the gTLD roots exist in anything like their current forms if DNS transactions cost as many CPU and stable storage computrons as an HTTP GET of a purely static page (even without TLS)?
