    	Well, for NSD, using large zones will cause it to eat memory 
    exponentially.  It pre-calculates all possible questions and all 
    possible answers before it loads the zone(s), and then creates a jump 
    table.

Eh? This is complete nonsense (or I don't know what the word
exponential means).

There rest of this messages is full of FUD.
