I've had the same experience. I've been told that this will be improved
in NSD4.
Not only was a lot of time wasted reloading NSD, it also caused all
kinds of problems such hangs, crashes and missed updates. Mind you, most
of this experinece is based on the ancient NSD2, NSD3 might be better.
In the end I wrote a wrapper script to handle nameserver restarts (both
NSD and Unbound). If a zones is reloaded any further commands will be
queued until the rebuild is done. Than another 'rebuild' is issued to
import any changes that were made inbetween.
I've attached the script. The comments are in Dutch but I know you can
read that.
The first reload command gets executed directly.
The second command creates a waiting queue.
The third moves into the queue.
Then the Unbound-caches are flushed.
