BIND and DHCPd performance

  • 772

I've a little question.

Is there any usual performance matrice on DHCPd and BIND services?

I mean, can I scale my servers depending on my clients numbers and then how?

Can I found somewhere a matrix or something about number of DNS queries per second handle by BIND on a basic server?

Can I found somewhere a matrix or something about number of leases delivers by DHCPd per second?

    BIND performance depends on the number of view, amount of memory, percentage of hits in the cache, number of authoritarian zones and types of queries. On not powerful server, BIND can handle 1k-2k queries/second.

    DHCP performance depends on the configuration(lease-time, fail-over, call function). For easy configuration(not use match, fail-over, log and other function) DHCP can handle 100K client(lease-time 30 minute).
