Control D was faster, but its victory came with a reliability problem I’m not sure if I can ignore. NextDNS went first in runs one and four, while Control D got to go first in runs two and three. I queried cloudflare.com 500 times, so after the first request, both NextDNS and Control D should’ve already cached the result. Among the 3,938 queried domain pairs that both providers answered successfully, Control D was faster 66.9% of the time. Control D was clearly the fastest resolver for my network, while NextDNS was far more reliable during the same test.
