There is no need for me to physically create 64k*4bil*4bil on a disk or memory area somewhere. I can make a plugin for my DNS server to hand you the generic result when you ask my DNS server what something reverses to... That is, I can serve you an ephemeral record without requiring an extra byte of storage beyond the life of your query :)
This is precisely the approach taken by the DNS server package written by the tech folks at the late, lamented MindSpring -- the name of which eludes me for the moment. Cheers, -- jra -- Jay R.
