Read the draft, before repeatedly demonstrating your

It is about the current configuration. Moreover,

then, even though you haven't read the draft, it is obvious that
100 times more root servers means 100 times less load.

The argument in the draft is on the root servers.

It is because someone (Paul Vixie, perhaps) thought that
several thousands new connection per second was harmful.
Thus, today, the timeout can be 5, 1 or 0 seconds, if
longer timeout is a problem (it is not, see below).

open even after a single query?
I wonder how you can say "I wrote OS".
