It looks to me that this is a side effect of a very permissive RRL configuration. My tests with the following command indicate that you have set responses-per-second to 5. mdig @147.28.0.39 -f queries.txt queries.txt contains 40x switch.ch A I would suggest something like this: rate-limit { // start rate-limiting if more then X identical // responses per second, default 0 i.e. unlimited responses-per-second 25; nxdomains-per-second 25; errors-per-second 25; // credit/penalty WINDOW, default 15 window 10; // send TC for every X-th rate-limited response, default 2 slip 1; }; Depending on your "max-udp-size" value (default 4096) you may also want to increase "tcp-clients" setting (default 150).
