I'm currently bypassing my BIND9 server as it is still having problems. 
I currently talking directly to the first forwarder I had set in the
config (I have 12 forwarders) and everything is fine.

As soon as I turn BIND back on and point to it, things go pear-shaped. 
The first query times-out.  The second query on the same address usually
returns something after about 30 seconds. 

The server in question started having problems about 10PM last night,
but as someone pointed out before, all my BIND installations have
periodic times of confusion and need a restart.
