Look up "queries, logging" in the index of the "DNS & BIND" book, and go to
those pages.

Not really.  You can use the "datasize" option to limit how much memory it
will use for the cache, but when it hits this limit the process will exit,
so you'll have to implement something that monitors it and restarts it
automatically.
