Hello Bind9 Geeks/Nerds and whoever,

I have the need for a GeoIP Database but the one from Maxmind peoduce  a
Disk-IO as the hell.  Now my Idea is to use my bind9 to archive my goal.

In general, I need ONLY the contry code for a  given  IP  but  I  a  not
disinclined to put more infos in the database.

[michelle.konzack at michelle1:~] host 188.66.4.62.geoip.tamay-dogan.net
188.66.4.62.geoip.tamay-dogan.net is an alias for de.geoip.tamay-dogan.net.
de.geoip.tamay-dogan.net has address 127.0.0.49

OK, this is working, but loading a ZONE of several 100 MBytes (I am  not
even finished with the german part) hit the limits,  even if my  Server,
a Quad-Xeon, has 16 GBytes of memory...

Any ideas howt to do this better?

Thanks, Greetings and nice Day/Evening
