I mean for 9$ a month I have a cpu that handles 2000 *Recursive* Queries a second. 900 bux could net me *200,000* a second if not more. The government overspends on a lot of things.. they need some one whos got the experience to use a bunch of cheap servers for the resolvers and a box that hosts the IPs used and then distributes the query packets.For $50/mo I can have a connection from Comcast. That doesn't mean that I could run my own cable to the nearest major exchange for anywhere near $50. Also, what's the failover if your $9/mo CPU develops a bad RAM card? Does your $9/mo CPU have sufficient geographic diversity to survive a backhoe? And about 4 zillion other things that people that actually have to run production services worry about...
My comment was directed at government spending... no need to have such a angry tone about the "comment". I was only comparing to what I spend on my large volumes of queries and what this so called expensive stuff the government is running... And I have never developed a bad ram card, even if I did, replacements are easy as i'm talking about distributed vps in this case.
