this is normal for all recursive dns servers not just unbound, because kaminsky
resistance requires randomized source udp port numbers for cache miss
transactions, which in turn requires a moderately large working set of bound
udp sockets, with heavy churn.

if this turns out to be chipset dependent, we should be looking at atomic test
and set operations. i long ago turned off hyperthreading because
microarchtectural details turned out to be motherboard dependent. there may be
similar problems still lurking, but on a lark, maybe try turning off
hyperthreading?
