Hi,
I'm trying to understand the difference between clients-per-query &
max-clients-per-query. I found a nice explanation by Mark Andrews here
[1] but then I wondered about max-clients-per-query.
Given a "clients-per-query" of 10, I assume that named will only queue
up 10 clients before it starts dropping queries. As far as I
understand, there would be one outstanding recursive-client (doing the
actual recursion for a given name/type) and when it finally receives the
answer it will give it to the other 9 clients that were waiting.
For me, this "clients-per-query" of 10 is an upper limit (maximum number
of clients before it starts dropping). So then, what's the purpose of
"max-clients-per-query"?
Thanks.
