Performance tuning

[Adamiec, Lawrence]

To the best of my knowledge, there are no problems with our DNS.  We only
host 25 domains.

The report must also address these two specific questions:


   1. Why does www.kentlaw.iit.edu load quicker than kentlaw.iit.edu in any
   browser?
   2. What happens if we remove the forwarders option from named.conf?

I can't duplicate the issue in Q1 and I'm trying to determine a way of
testing Q2.
