<div>Interesting paper – thanks for giving the list a heads up. My comments:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>1 – I think the claim “First, removing resolvers simplifies the overall system” is a matter of opinion. I may even argue the opposite, that the prevalence of large scale resolvers simplifies the overall system (but as an operator of one, I am admittedly
biased).</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>2 – The sample size of a resolver serving 100 home users seems small. You may want to try to collect data from larger networks.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>3 – I am not sure that authoritative server operators would be prepared for the large increase in query volumes, and not sure they’d be prepared to mitigate that by compromising with longer TTLs.</div>
