Really but absolutely _not_ significantly. As I also said in the
referenced post, IMO all those 'load on root/tld nameserver' arguments
are ludicrously overblown as commonly advanced in (other instances of)
these discussions. Methinks the people so arguing are basically
bikeshedding (http://linuxmafia.com/~rick/lexicon.html#bikeshed) and
don't really understand the effect of caching and huge TTL values.

You might not have noticed that you were strenuously agreeing with me.
