I've had very good results with MaraDNS, been using it for at least two
years now with no problems.

Some highlights:

Memory based, so
it loads all the configuration settings on startup and then jails itself so
it cannot write to the FS
Small, and FAST - It's been benchmarked as faster than Bind (not hard) and
djbdns
Simple to configure - no more BIND howto
Wildcards - *.domain.com, not a unique feature but I thought I'd point it
out anyways.

If you're worried about having to restart the server to make changes
(the one caveat of this design),
then I wouldn't use it, but it's not that big of a deal for most scenarios.
