"One anycast implementation is having trouble, therefore anycast must be inherently bad" is hardly good logic. Something I forgot to add to my anycast ramblings the other evening: Say one has ns1.domain.tld and ns2.domain.tld both anycasted. Assuming pods have two machines, set your MEDs[*] such that ns1 prefers server "A" and ns2 prefers server "B". This helps queries destined for different NSes hit different machines.

I don't think gtld-servers.net uses anycast; someone correct me if I'm wrong. F-root != gtld-servers.net.
