What kind of delays per message are you seeing?
Check out these links: http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/spamassassin-users/200501.mbox/%3C6.2.0.14.0.20050104182350.02f4f418@192.168.50.2%3E http://wiki.openrbl.org/wiki/VISI relays.visi.com had two nameservers, ns1.visi.com and ns2.visi.com. ns1 is still working, but ns2 is not. When dns queries go to ns2, there's a timeout of about a couple of seconds. Customer who reported this had heavy dns traffic, and this timeout eventually caused all further requests to timeout, rendering the nameserver useless until restarted.
