Comment on Encrypted DNS and NTP = Deadlockparent

Comments

I've written a bit about DNSSEC. Adoption is only around 1-5%, deployment is a footgun [1], and validation currently imposes significant performance penalties [2], although that could be improved.

I've also written about performance of DNS over TLS [3] and found it to be negligible. The TLS setup is only done infrequently.

Negligible only if you have enough DNS queries to keep the connection alive. Last I checked Quad9 and Cloudflare will close the connection quickly, regardless of EDNS keepalive setting.
