+Subject: Disable lame-ttl cache
+
+The lame-ttl cache is implemented in ADB as per-server locked
+linked-list "indexed" with <qname,qtype>. This list has to be walked
+every time there's a new query or new record added into the lame cache.
+Determined attacker can use this to degrade performance of the resolver.
+
+Resolver testing has shown that disabling the lame cache has little
+impact on the resolver performance and it's a minimal viable defense
+against this kind of attack.
