The DNS has a hierarchical structure that allows the authoritative source for data to be found within a small number of requests that depends on the number of components in the fqdn. There is no such structure in sks, and no way of knowing that all I no has been found, so the *best* case scenario is that every server has to be polled for every request. > How to maintain a pool of servers like above?
