- <para>These set the
- initial value (minimum) and maximum number of recursive
- simultaneous clients for any given query
- (<qname,qtype,qclass>) that the server will accept
- before dropping additional clients.
- <command>named</command> will attempt to
- self tune this value and changes will be logged. The
- default values are 10 and 100.
- </para>
- <para>
- This value should reflect how many queries come in for
- a given name in the time it takes to resolve that name.
- If the number of queries exceed this value, <command>named</command> will
- assume that it is dealing with a non-responsive zone
- and will drop additional queries. If it gets a response
- after dropping queries, it will raise the estimate. The
- estimate will then be lowered in 20 minutes if it has
- remained unchanged.
- </para>
- <para>
- If <command>clients-per-query</command> is set to zero,
- then there is no limit on the number of clients per query
- and no queries will be dropped.
- </para>
- <para>
- If <command>max-clients-per-query</command> is set to zero,
- then there is no upper bound other than imposed by
- <command>recursive-clients</command>.
