Largest number of domains that bind can handle?

[Bill Manning]

 Take a peak at RFC 2010.  The number of processors is (currently) not
 particularly interesting. 


% 
% Let's assume a four processor Intel based Pentium II 500 Mhz server on the
% low end and a 60 processor Sun box on the high end.
% 
% Assume as much memory as you want, just specify the number.
% 
% The acceptance criteria would be that a DNS query should not take more than
% maybe 100 ms to answer when the system is under very heavy load for 72
% straight hours.
