        David Conrad, ICANN maven and one-time IANA manager, posted some numbers
        from their DNSSEC testbed a month or so back.  Responses were just under
        1800 bytes. 

        The current deployment plan is to stage things to push out large 
responses
        early - prior to having any actual DNSSEC usable data ... ostensibly to
        flush out DNSmtu problems.
