number and distribution of registrations maybe - that comes down to number and sizing of servers and geography/network diversity, the others are at best operational concerns for the backend, not for the "frontend" DNS servers. Taking RFC 2870, why wouldn't all of section 2 and most of section 3 and section 4 be applicable to both gTLD and ccTLD servers (changing root zone and IANA as appropriate)?
