[Dnsmasq-discuss] Slow resolving

Hello,
I am using dnsmasq on my router to serve up LAN host names and would
like all other queries to pass through to the ISP's DNS servers. I seem
to have some mild misconfiguration of dnsmasq.conf slowing down new
queries for external addresses. Within the TTL subsequent queries are
fast.
What should I change to speed up responses for domains that are not
served locally?
Below is what I have in dnsmasq.conf
port=53
address=/foo.bar.lan/192.168.1.12
user=_dnsmasq
group=_dnsmasq
listen-address=192.168.1.1
no-dhcp-interface=vether1
I have also added the following, but see no increase in speed over the
above alone.
domain-needed
local=/lan/
no-poll
local-ttl=600
no-resolv
server=8.8.8.8
Thanks,
Lars
