From libfiredns(3):

|
|
libfiredns is a library for handling asynchronous DNS
|
|
requests. It provides a very simple interface for sending
|
|
requests and parsing reponses, as well as low-timeout
|
|
blocking functions. It can also be compiled to override
|
|
the BIND/LIBC functions with its alternative implementations.
|
|
libfiredns functions have much lower timeouts than the stock
|
|
functions and tend to be faster because they send requests
|
|
to all configured system nameservers at the same time.
