# Serve stale

Demo module that allows using timed-out records in case kresd is unable to contact upstream servers.

By default it allows stale-ness by up to one day, after roughly four seconds trying to contact the servers. It’s quite configurable/flexible; see the beginning of the module source for details. See also the RFC draft (not fully followed) and `cache.ns_tout`.
