Hi Florian,

Yes very simply configuration, so that you cannot shoot yourself (or the
upstream servers).

Popular means a query arrived during the last 10% of the TTL of the
message.  In general this would be domains that get more than 10 queries
per their TTL.  In general this would add a limited load to the system
and traffic to authorities.

This also means that if no queries are received, the cache times out
normally.

Best regards,
   Wouter
