Do you want dns servers to spend extra CPU power to lookup whether this is a “non-functional” glue case instead of spending less CPU just looking if it has a glue record and adding it? If the latter, should it do this extra work of things don’t fit to determine the usefulness of TC=1 for this to set it depending those circumstances or just set TC=1 based on size ? > From this perspective it's a greater kindness to all concerned to fail > consistently when such configurations are first deployed. Is that kindness worth spending more CPU cycles on the auth server? Paul _______________________________________________ DNSOP mailing list DNSOP@ietf.org https://www.ietf.org/mailman/listinfo/dnsop
