Ok, so you're doing a purely local test, asking for local data as well, eliminating any external network, but at the same time increasing the load on the nameserver you're testing. What kind of hardware/OS are you benchmarking on? How many processors/cores? And is BIND allowed to use them all? Is it dnsperf you're using, or is there another tool called queryperf? For dnsperf, there's some command line options you could tweak. Maybe changing the number of outstanding queries (-q number) will make a difference?
