From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

As for DNS Benchmarking: I used a Shell Script to check the performance of my pi hole. I got that from github, just look for "dns benchmark github" and you'll find tons of script in all languages people wrote.
Great tips, thank you!
Tried unbound ?
While self-hosting reduces the number of requests to upstream, it does not completely solve the problem (since OP still needs to forward requests to an upstream DNS). Do you have any suggestions for that?
Unbound can be configured to make requests directly to the DNS "root server" . These should not be censored. The guide linked by surfbum explains this accordingly.
Never heard of it before, cheers.
