When we connect to a website our computer sends information back and forth. Some of this information deals with resolving the site name to an IP address. This is DNS information and is used so that you will not need to ask for the site location each and every time you visit the site. Windows XP has a pretty efficient DNS cache that you can increase its overall performance by increasing its size. You can do this with the registry entries below:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Dnscache\Parameters]
"CacheHashTableBucketSize"=dword:00000001
"CacheHashTableSize"=dword:00000180
"MaxCacheEntryTtlLimit"=dword:0000fa00
"MaxSOACacheEntryTtlLimit"=dword:0000012d
Make a new text file and rename it as dnscache.reg. Then copy and paste the above into it and save it. Merge it into the registry.
