Do you have text that you suggest be included?

Public keys stored in DNS records are much larger than DNS records used for address lookup and other typical DNS usages. Caching DNS resolvers should limit the amount of memory consumed by the cache, and more memory may be necessary to restore caches to their previous effectiveness.
