There's a pause before each web link is resolved. I see lagginess each time
I take a link or go to a new address. For instance, it takes FF 4-5 seconds
to display http://royalty.mine.nu:81, which is served by this computer.
And each link thereon takes several seconds to follow. OK, I thought, it
could be thttpd or FF is slow. But http://localhost (which is the same
page) displays almost instantly. I'm guessing, the chosen DNS server defers
to its next-in-line each time, and never caches anything? /etc/resolv.conf
has
search home
nameserver 192.168.42.33
*.33 is my router, which runs DD-WRT. It has in Setup/Basic Setup,
in the "Router IP" box,
Local DNS 0.0.0.0
and in the "Network Address Server Settings (DHCP)" box,
Static DNS 1 0.0.0.0
Static DNS 2 0.0.0.0
Static DNS 3 0.0.0.0
In Status/WAN, it has
DNS 1 68.238.112.12
DNS 2 68.238.0.12
DNS 3
so it's getting them from _somewhere_. Curiously, I get
eben@pc:~$ time wget -q -O - royalty.mine.nu:81/index.html > /dev/null
real 0m0.056s
user 0m0.000s
sys 0m0.000s
which indicates "not DNS" to me.
What should I do to fix this?
