Interpreting your benchmark results above:

The following guide is only intended as a quick
"get you going" reference and reminder.
To obtain a working understanding of this program's operation, and to familiarize yourself
with its many features, please see the main DNS Benchmark web page by clicking on the
"Goto DNS Page" button below.
Referring to this sample:

The Benchmark creates a table similar to the one above for each DNS resolver
(nameserver) tested. The top line specifies the IP address of the nameserver for this table.
The first three numeric columns provide the minimum, average, and maximum queryresponse times in seconds. Note that these timings incorporate all network delays from

the querying computer, across the Internet, to the nameserver, the nameserver's own
processing, and the return of the reply. Since the numbers contain three decimal digits of
accuracy, the overall resolution of the timing is thousandths of a second, or milliseconds.
The fourth numeric column shows the "standard deviation" of the collected queryresponse times which is a common statistical measure of the spread of the values - a
smaller standard deviation means more consistency and less spread.
The fifth and last numeric column shows the reliability of the tested nameserver's replies
to queries. Since lost, dropped, or ignored queries introduce a significant lookup delay
(typically a full second or more each) a nameserver's reliability is an important
consideration.
The labels of the middle three lines are colored red, green, and blue to match their
respective bars on the response time bar chart.
The "Cached Name" line presents the timings for queries that are answered from the
server's own local name cache without requiring it to forward the query to other name
servers. Since the name caches of active public nameservers will always be full of the IPs
of common domains, the vast majority of queries will be cached. Therefore, the
Benchmark gives this timing the highest weight.
The "Uncached Name" line presents the timings for queries which could not be
answered from the server's local cache and required it to ask another name server for the
data. Specifically, this measures the time required to resolve the IP addresses of the
Internet's 30 most popular web sites. The Benchmark gives this timing the second highest
weight.
The "DotCom Lookup" line presents the timings for the resolution of dot com
nameserver IP addresses. This differs from the Cached and Uncached tests above, since
they measure the time required to determine a dot com's IP, whereas the DotCom Lookup
measures the time required to resolve the IP of a dot com's nameserver, from which a dot
com's IP would then be resolved. This test presents a measure of how well the DNS
server being tested is connected to the dot com nameservers.
The lower border of the table contains a set of eight indicators (O and -) representing nonroutable networks whose IP addresses are actively blocked by the resolver to protect its
users from DNS rebinding attacks: <O-OO---->. The "O" character indicates that blocking
is occurring for the corresponding network, whereas the "-" character indicates that nonroutable IP addresses are being resolved and rebinding protection is not present. The first
four symbols represent the four IPv4 networks beginning with 10., 127., 172., and 192.
respectively, and the second four symbols are the same networks but for IPv6.
The final two lines at the bottom of each chart duplicate the information from the Name and
Owner tabs on the Nameserver page:

dns.chi1.speakeasy.net
Speakeasy
The first line displays the "Reverse DNS" name of the server, if any. (This is the name
looked up by the nameserver's IP address.) The second line displays the Ownership
information, if any, of the network containing the nameserver

The final line of the automatically generated chart is a timestamp that shows the date and
time of the start, completion, and total elapsed time of the benchmark:
UTC: 2009-07-15 from 16:41:50 to 16:44:59 for 03:08.703
All times are given in Universal Coordinated Time (UTC) which is equivalent to GMT. In the
sample shown above, the entire benchmark required 3 minutes, 8.703 seconds to run to
completion.
