I think the question is truly this:

some of the dns responses that i saw had low ttls, should they use a longer ttl?

the problems i saw were related to the data expiring from the cache, some of this is to workaround broken clients/resolvers that will "latch" on to one IP (as part of a load balancing solution), but IMHO those people don't deserve internet service until their systems properly do RR...

One of us thinks the shor TTL is at the heart of the Akamai "system". -- Requiescas in pace o email Ex turpi causa non oritur actio http://members.cox.net/larrysheldon/
