[Pdns-users] difference in timing?

[Remco Post]

Hi All,

I just build 2.9.16 on solaris and opposed to 2.9.15 this release 
doesn't crash on a query from a ipv6 client, but it's not really good 
yet either:

dinkie# dig @127.0.0.1 -p 5300 -t NS pipsworld.nl +norecurse

; <<>> DiG 8.3 <<>> @127.0.0.1 -p -t pipsworld.nl +norecurse
; (1 server found)
;; res options: init defnam dnsrch
;; got answer:

As you all can see, ipv6 is a bit slower than ipv4 :(

My config is:

./configure --with-modules="ldap" --enable-recursor --enable-pdns_server

and yes, my zone is stored in ldap.
