Can it be, that the RBL lookups are screwing up?
I have installed bind9 (HP Vectra XA5, P1/200 with 384MByte) which is
there for 7 domains (over 180 sudomains and arround 800 hosts) and as
caching DNS but it seems, if I become spamed it become a bery heavy
loaded...
Normaly the load average is under 0.5 but if I become spamed over 10.
Thanks, Greetings and nice Day
