I get about a quarter or third of that time if I try other DNS servers.
My own took 1500 mS the first time, then 6 ms for subsequent attempts

for other addresses took about 100 mS, so the BBC query must have been
answered by something further away. My server checks it cache, then (if
it doesn't have an answer) goes out to the root servers (to find out who
would know the answer), then whatever servers the roots tell it, like a
proper traditional DNS server.
I consider 1.5 secs for a response to be unusually long. I couldn't put
up with that, or worse, consistently.
I changed the router configuration to use 208.67.229.220:5353 and
208.67.222.222:5353 and see the following:

As you say the cache is much faster, 2 ms as opposed to 616 ms.
But I still don't know what DNS address it actually goes to, how do I
find that?
The DNS that is in your router is what IP it goes to, which in most
cases your Internet Provider .
In /etc/resolve.conf I put the Google DNS 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.0.0 and get
better results.
You can goto http://getip.com and it will tell you what your IP is.
Hech it will even show you and everybody where you live.
