How does Cloudflare NS deal with caching resolvers?
1 comments

It tells you even percentage and absolute number of cached dns queries. Cloudflare is dope!
I think he meant queries from caching nameservers that cloudflare does not control. I would argue the majority of queries would be fulfilled by these caching nameservers.
Setting a sufficiently low DNS TTL will take most caching servers out of the question.
Got it. It works for sites at certain amounts of traffic. Hugely popular might have more than one user per minute per dns resolver.
