coredns/plugin/forward/forward.go

// Package forward implements a forwarding proxy. It caches an upstream net.Conn for some time, so if the same
// client returns the upstream's Conn will be precached. Depending on how you benchmark this looks to be
// 50% faster than just opening a new connection for every client. It works with UDP and TCP and uses
// inband healthchecking.
