If your server is equal to or greater than an SS10 with 48Mbytes of memory,
absolutely none --- I've got such a DNS server with around 10,000 records
running with no problems whatsoever. I suspect that you could get away with a
much smaller server as well --- unless of course you have a *really* busy DNS
server.
