drill vs dig comparison was not form mac, but I expect them behave similarly on different platforms. drill is a dig-like utility from NLnet Labs, on Mac can be installed as part of ldns library e. g. using 'brew install ldns'

With Drill I get the same numbers with or without the -t argument for tcp. So it gives a different result from dig. Why?

How these number compare to ping RTT? On FreeBSD I have following numbers - ping: 12ms avg, drill: 13 msec (~RTT), drill -t: 25 msec (2*RTT)
