Either Rick doesn't go big on indexing, or he keeps the indexes
close to his chest.

I'm not sure which one has the Win32 results - but the recent
per server results show BIND 8 v BIND 9 on same hardware.

Switching on optimisation in  the C compiler does appear to lift
peak throughput by about 50% on HP-UX, which is a lot cheaper
than buying bigger hardware ;)
