Thanks for your response. In my tests the two main resolvers were both equally 
fast (≈ 1 ms as they had the results cached), so even though one may be a tiny 
bit quicker than the other, I doubt it would be an explanation for it choosing 
a specific server 19 out of 20 times. Though it would be interesting to verify 
this; is there some debug option that shows dnsmasq's train of thought?

What do you mean here?

Thanks,
