SQLite is only useful for small installations and a few domains because it 
uses table locks when it writes the changes to the database. As each zone 
transfer is a transaction that wants to write to the same table, no two 
transfers can happen in parallel. Better use a different database for the 
slave dns servers in your case. MySQL is the one with the highest read 
performance but you can use whatever fits your needs.
