How do you locate the fastest DNS server available to you? Even though most

netizens use the fast Open DNS server, you might not be sure if you are availing

the maximum speed. NameBench is a  free software, compatible with

Windows/Mac/Linux, that hunts down the fastest DNS servers available for your

computer to use, so that you can experience  faster Internet browsing. It

actually benchmarks your DNS servers by taking factors like web browser history

and standardized datasets in order to provide  an individualized recommendation

and tcpdump output. It scans your configured DNS servers and additional servers

and finds the best  network connection.  NameBench is available with a graphical

user interface as well as a command-line interface.

This software  automatically detects the DNS servers. You have the option to

change the Data Source i.e you can change the Web browser in which it shows the

result, etc.

We  benchmarked our DNS servers using all the default settings. It checked,

among its default 200 tests, all the healthy servers and run a series of tests

to give proper results. The result showed  DNS servers compared against 10

different servers.

Direct Hit!

mean response duration, fastest individual response duration, etc.

After extracting the NameBench files, it automatically
