Hi,
Just for information :
- about www.google.com & www.google.fr
;; ANSWER SECTION:
www.google.fr. 16h17m34s IN CNAME www.google.com.
www.google.com. 3d16h17m34s IN CNAME www.l.google.com.
www.l.google.com. 5M IN A 66.249.87.99
www.l.google.com. 5M IN A 66.249.87.104
Google use a round robin of 5 minutes.
- about max connection to DNS servers.
Our B2C DNS structure receive (depend of hours) from 6000 to 9000 connections per second
- regarding Load Balancing.
As for me the best way is to use load balancing even if it's software load balancing...You're going toward problems using such a low TTL level
Regards.
