Hi Heiko,

Why use the "file" option at all on a slave?

If you don't use the "file" option on a slave, then BIND does not write
the zone to disk. This is okay for a small number of small zones. But if
you have many zones, or they are large, then you usually want to save a
copy of the zone to disk, so that at restart, BIND can load the zones in
quickly

and load them at all in a acceptable timeframe

if it doesn ot save them to disk as you said and you have some hundret zones you likely exceed transfer ratelimits and it takes unacceptable long until you slave responds while clients already ask him

the next problem with not having them on disk is: god beware if your master is down and due analyzes or before you recognize the problem you restart your slave named or the server
