Some larger providers already do this on their caching servers. It's rather annoying, actually. I don't see anything wrong with setting a 10s TTL if I size my bandwidth and server capacity accordingly.
That's not the problem. It's ill-behaved clients that ignore TTL and query every 10s no matter what. See some of James Smith's posts... If somebody wants to chew their own bandwidth and server resources and add latency, that's their business. At the other extreme, we have large providers that ignore TTLs and refuse to refresh more than once a week no matter what.
