Actually, you can. You prioritize non-NSEC3 records, since thats a finite, identifiable, priority set, and cache the responses. Thus if you have 10k valid names, each with 100 different possible responses, and have a max 1 minute TTL on signatures, thats only 16k signatures/s in the absolute worst case, which you can do on a single, 16 core computer. -- Nicholas Weaver it is a tale, told by an idiot, nwea...@icsi.berkeley.edu full of sound and fury, 510-666-2903 .signifying nothing PGP: http://www1.icsi.berkeley.edu/~nweaver/data/nweaver_pub.asc
