When you connect to a web site your computer sends information back and forth.

 

Some of this information deals with resolving the site name to an IP address,

the stuff that TCPIP really deals with, not words.

This is DNS information and is used so that you will not need to ask for the site location

each and every time you visit the site.

Although Windows XP and Windows XP have a pretty efficient DNS cache,

you can increase its overall performance by increasing its size.

 You can do this with the registry entries below

 

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetServicesDnscacheParameters]

CacheHashTableBucketSize=dword00000001

CacheHashTableSize=dword00000180

MaxCacheEntryTtlLimit=dword0000fa00

MaxSOACacheEntryTtlLimit=dword0000012d

 

Make a new text file and rename it to dnscache.reg.

Then copy and paste the above into it and save it. Merge it into the registry.

by double clicking on it.
