Product Description:

This app will test the performance of your dns server and show the results in a handy chart.

It will resolve the ip addresses in random order of the included list of 10,000 domain names inside the domains.txt file.

You can edit this file if you wish to test different domains.

What's new in this version:

Modified the MacOS version to be faster and more accurate on Lepoard.
Added Timeout test & count (> 1200 ms) so that DNS Queries that timeout will not skew the results.
Fixed Misspelling in stats page. i>
the unreliable Preemptive Threading Module I was using for a more traditional cooperative threading model. (The window may not be as responsive while tests are running but stability should be greatly increased, so less crashes !)
Changed Graph to draw all lines in black as some of the colors were hard to read.
Graph will now scroll the most recent 20 results.
Fixed bug that caused the domains.txt file to be truncated if the app was closed during the startup randomization process.
More democratic Subjective DNS Server Performance Metric

...it would be better if the fired off several queries at a time instead of serialising them. Number of concurrent queries should be user settable with a reasonable default.
