    DNS caching isn’t super difficult code probably (we do variants of it in lua). you basically just need to put a expiry + timestamp in the table when it expires based on the inbound TTL, If fetching and its expired delete it / don’t send it, and sweep through every so often and purge old items. Standard DNS isn’t a very complex protocol

      I agree entirely but you just know there’s some stupid apps only working because there’s no caching here
