The rate at which changes get propagated through the DNS depends on the time-to-live values associated with each domain, and is not (or at least shouldn't be ) controlled by which server is used. Similarly dnsmasq caching honours TTL values, so if the domain wants you to have up-to-date records, dnsmasq will not keep things in the cache fora long time.
