OK, bad choice of words on my part. I did not mean to say that you should not 
set any configuration options to disable recursion, because as you said, it is 
on by default (but restricted, by default, to localnets and localhost). What I 
meant was that there is no reason to permit recursive queries to your 
authoritative servers. Therefore, I would recommend turning it off using 
'recursion no;' in your options or view statement.
