Having a local copy of the root zone using the auth-zone feature (or on
a local NSD) might help a little.

Hi,
We are running multiple unbound caches behind very long latency
sat links. We are seeing RTT of at least 1000ms.
Sometimes recursing times spike up to 20 Seconds.
Is there an optimization guide on how to fine tune parameters
for those situations?
I have already seen jostle-timeout. I am pretty shure prefetching
has a huge impact.
Anything else?

auth-zone: may be worth a try for sat. Trying auth-zone: on a broadband
connection does appear to speed things up. The root zones ".", "arpa",
"in-addr.arpa", and "ip6.arpa" NS respond to XFR. My conf example:
auth-zone:
# Note root zone will be 2-3MB
name: "."
master: "a.root-servers.net"
...
master: "m.root-servers.net"
fallback-enabled: yes
for-downstream: no
for-upstream: yes
zonefile: "root.zone"
