DNSCurve also assumes that authoritative name servers are willing to do orders of magnitude more calculations per second, all the time, than DNSSEC requires of them. That is, cryptographic calculations are needed for every response. Placing that burden on the DNS may or may not be acceptable to current operators. It may or may not also lead to less stability.


That made me laugh. I would rather burden a server with added clicks then the added burden DNSSEC will cause the world - not only in bandwidth - which will explode under DNSSEC but also the economic costs to business and individuals of migrating hundreds of millions of domains in the DNSSEC make work project. Let's not forget DNSSEC re-engineers the Internet to a centralized control model that defeats the end to end basics.
