Mark Andrews was right.
This server was being hammered so hard that logging the rejects was
killing the performance.
adding:
logging {
category default { null; };

to named.conf fixed the performance issues.
Your server was hammered so hard, because you've had recursion allowed in
the past. Simply leave recursion turned off and do not allow it for foreign
customers (only customers with IPs from your range should be allowed to
recurse). Recursion can cause you even other kinds of troubles.
Simply said: ANYONE, DO NOT ALLOW RECURSION FOR OUTSIDE CLIENTS. EVER.
