What sort of workloads are you doing where 60ms extra time on your DNS lookups is an issue?
- uncharted9 2y agoNothing interesting particularly, but cached + faster DNS resolution is usually perceptible in general web browsing.
- 3eb7988a1663 2y agoI naively assumed most OS + routers cache DNS queries so that your typical sites will not even require a lookup. Or is that a bad assumption?
- uncharted9 2y agoI switched from Adguard Home to Blocky because I noticed how much faster page loads were on Blocky. I've configured it to cache any query I resolve more than once in a 24 hour window. This makes most of my page loads really, really fast. Adguard also has the ability to cache. But I haven't seen it to significantly speed up my page loads. The default resolution itself is much slower on Adguard + Cloudflare DNS compared to Blocky + Cloudflare DNS. So this makes Adguard double whammy.
- kstrauser 2y agoDNS records commonly have cache lifetimes (“TTLs”) of a few minutes. It would be an error to cache those for much longer.
