Re: [tor-relays] exit operators: DNS failure rate increased - please check your DNS



Understandably I got the following question from an operator (off-list): 
> How do we fix this? 

This was my answer:

For fast exits we generally recommend to run a local caching and validating
resolver like unbound, without using forwarding.

Besides being more reliable this also improves latency since many hostnames
will be resolved using cached entries.

Regardless of how you proceed: Please do _not_ use Google's DNS server, they see
already a lot of DNS traffic.
