Hi Mahdi,

This may not be what you are looking for but the just released
aggressive-nsec: yes option uses DNSSEC aggressive NSEC processing to
cache more NXDOMAINs per upstream lookup, and more quickly respond to
NXDOMAINs, resulting in less upstream traffic and less load on the
server for NXDOMAINS.

Best regards, Wouter
