nscd: A Name Service Caching Daemon (nscd).

Name:	nscd	Vendor:
Version:	2.3.2	License:	LGPL
Release:	95.20	URL:

Summary

Nscd caches name service lookups and can dramatically improve performance with NIS+, and may help with DNS as well. Note that you can't use nscd with 2.0 kernels because of bugs in the kernel-side thread support. Unfortunately, nscd happens to hit these bugs particularly hard.
