I recently converted ~120k domains in DNS from BIND to MyDNS, and it's proving to work quite well. I'm extremely happy with it. Even moreso, implementing a secondary is as easy as MySQL replication. It's fast, has proven to be stable, and since it's MySQL-based, we are easily able to integrate it with our other systems. More information can be found at http://mydns.bboy.net .
