The name of your DNS server can't really be that important.
Oh yes it is, as it is another dependency and another two/three lookups. Lets say example.com uses ns.example.nz:query ., .com, example.com, .nz, example.nz, ns.example.nz (though maybe the latter is hinted as glue, though with DNSSEC that doesn't really help), www.example.com
instead of: query ., .com, example.com, www.example.com Quite a bit quicker, and also less parts that can fail.Lets see, a) IPv6 AAAA glue, or b) no IPv6 AAA glue and having quicker resolution and less dependencies, let me think for a second, take a small guess what I take (b).
Also, if you would look at http://www.sixxs.net/faq/dns/?faq=ipv6glue it is somewhat easy to find an alternative registrar which can do the glue for you.
