I'm thinking about changing it so that one of the two optimizations in

duplicating that effort. Especially since that effort is made once for
each test.
Then it would just a matter of setting the score for
RELAY_CHECKER_BADDNS to 0 if you want to eliminate the other DNS check
that gets done.

I'd recommend it, fwiw...
The next release of RelayChecker (0.4 or 1.0, not sure yet) now has this
implemented. So, right there, it will reduce the number of DNS checks,
for the default configuration, from 5 to 1. The "reduce_dns" option is
removed, since the only thing you need to do now is set the score for
RELAY_CHECKER_BADDNS to 0.
Also, RELAY_CHECKER_BADDNS now has a default score of 0.00 0.01 0.00
0.01 ... so it should automatically obey if you've turned off network
checks.
I'll probably release this new code next week some time.
