Use UDP for (small) incremental zone transfers?

[Greg Choules]

Sending from the correct email alias!

Hi again.
How many is "many"? A busy server will be handling many 1000s of queries
per second. A few (tiny) zone transfers per minute will be background noise
compared to that and the extra overhead of TCP will be negligible
in comparison. IMHO it's not worth worrying about.

Cheers, Greg
