We have a setup with a non-public master and two publicly visible slaves. All three servers are using the bind backend. Sometimes we need to change many zones, say about 2000, at the same time, causing the master to send out 2000 NOTIFYs to the slaves. We find that while they're processing them and doing the corresponding zone transfers from the master, they frequently stop replying to incoming queries for several seconds at a time. Has anyone else seen this? Is it something we can fix by different configuration, or a consequence of having a lot of simultaneous NOTIFYs being processed, or a consequence of using the bind backend?
We are running with retrieval-threads=1 and distributor-threads=1 - I can give the rest of our conf if anyone thinks it's relevant but most of it is left at defaults.
