Benchmarking DNS response times of TLDs

Although I may see what the BunnyCDN is trying to get at, personally I've gotten under 10ms with .com (even w/o caching).

I find this a bit hard to believe without more people justifying or backing this work up.

So yeah, don't worry about your TLD. .io is perfectly fine and companies and people internationally use it.

.io doesn't have a good history though outside of this - https://hn.algolia.com/?query=io%20domain&sort=byPopularity&...

It's also famously ethically dubious:

I'd like to point out that these are empty platitudes. Imagine going to your boss to justify not moving tlds and saying, "well sdan on hackernews said it was fine!"
