Note that any dns caching software would help, unbound is just one
popular one. dnsmasq is another. In fact, if you wanted to, you could
use the full bind package and configure it for caching and forwarding,
although that would be a bit of overkill. Once you install caching
software, make sure your /etc/resolv.conf or equivalent is pointing to
127.0.0.1 as its first reference.

From my point of view, it's mostly about reliability. You can use the
hoster's DNS resolver, but be aware that a high-bandwidth exit asks a
lot of DNS requests. Not every hoster's DNS resolver might be able to
cope with it and as a result your exit might give users a poor
experience.

I was setting up exit nodes and I had a question. Why is it
recommended
to use DNS caching software Unbound? What benefits does it provide
compared to using hoster's DNS resolver?
