PDNS performance comparison to BIND

Hello,
I have tested PDNS performance (configuration below). A zone transfer of
100 000 records takes ~ 10 s using either MySQL or file backends.
However Bind can make it in ~ 1 s (file-stored records).

I have read the pdns manual chap.9 and tested the distributor-threads,
cache-ttl and query-cache-ttl settings without a change in the performance.

How can the performance be improved?

Thank you for suggestions,

Jan


Configuration:

- Fedora Core 9
- MySQL 5.0.77
- PDNS 2.9.22, compiled with gcc version 4.2.4
- DiG 9.5.0-P2
- pdns.conf: defaults +
        launch=gmysql
        gmysql-host=127.0.0.1
        gmysql-user=kelb
        gmysql-password=xxxx
        gmysql-dbname=npdb
        negquery-cache-ttl=600
        query-cache-ttl=600
        wildcards=no
