It is an ISP DNS, when they test the second DNS (advertised as secondary for customers), when they test they noticed that it is a little bit slow when opening same websites comparing to first DNS (primary), this happens only first time they open the website then it will be fine (because caching)..

Now, they do have DHCP clients, I'll put the second DNS for them and see if there is any difference.

Thanks everyone,
Alans

	If you also operate the DHCP server(s) from which
	the clients obtain the data to put in /etc/resolv.conf,
	you can try to balance the resolver load by tuning the
	DHCP advertisements.

	No-one on the list can really advise whether this would be
	useful, as you don't say what problem you're trying to solve,
