DNS has nothing to do with the speed of, for example, you tube. Slow DNS affects the ability to initiate the load of your page or requests within that page to different URLs.

Well, I know. But there was not information from Gary, so we are not sure if it was the page load time that is slow or actual speed of youtube download. Further, since the google homepage is really clean and small (8k for logo.gif, and a simple html file), I am not sure if the speed of the link has much to do with it.

In general, switching to OpenDNS fixes many of the issues.
