well. the end user suffer coz of outdated
dns. the 4.2 series are pretty fast in updating dns servers. best when u are into developing websites.

ok did preliminary analysis betn opendns and treewalk dns.
comparision table is as follows:
domain lookup | opendns | treewalk dns
----------------| time(ms) | time (ms)
-------------------------------------------
google.co.in | 255 | 240
google.com | 209 | 236
rediff.com | 280 | 330
msn.co.in | 351 | 375
msn.com | 386 | 377
so not much difference in speed. both are almost same.
but maybe 4.2 servers keep less caching time. so DNS refreshes more often
and that may be the reason of few milisecond difference.

i really doubt they have anything for us indians considering most of the web surfers here even know the basics of how we connect to the web. i did post a comment at their blog suggesting that india based DNS servers are really pathetic and they might be interested in setting something here.

yes geographic distribution is currently just in usa. but then considering VSNL has
direct lines to USA (eg. USA sites ping response are faster than UK, even if UK is half
distance closer). we might be getting (not so sure) that advantage as well.
but u r right. currently nothing for india and wont come in near future as well.
