This is quite a bit higher than client DNS lookups (1500ms first, on retry 3000ms)
and is because some DNSBL are reported to be quite a bit slower than ordinary DNS.
(Maybe just some, but.. the higher timeout does not hurt anyone anyway)
Note that all this has no effect on client handshake times, as DNSBL checks are
done in the background. Only side-effect is that if we do get a "late hit" then
you may now see a kill a few seconds after the client is online (which was actually
already possible before too for quick clients, but.. yeah...)
These settings can be overriden via set::dns, these are the defaults:
set {
dns {
client {
timeout 1500;
retry 2;
}
dnsbl {
timeout 3000;
retry 2;
}
}
}
When you REHASH we will check if the values are different than the current
c-ares settings and if so, reinitialize the resolver. Reinitializing the
resolver will destroy outstanding DNS requests, eg DNS lookups for clients
currently connecting, but so be it. Not a super-huge issue since changing
this is rare.
