Hi,

In FreeBSD threading has been disabled in Bind 9.
See:

http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/cvs-src/2005-August/050510.html

Reason was because with threading bind 9 performs less and suffers
a memory leak. So in FreeBSD named is no longer linked to libpthread.
Is it an idea to do the same in NetBSD?
At least until 9.4.0 comes which should remedy the mentioned problems and 
should mean a boost in performance. 
Bye,

Mipam.
