TorDNS fixed

I downloaded this app yet but have not yet had time to install and try 
it out. Before I do, in all honesty, does pumping DNS through Tor like 
this make lookups insanely slow compared to how they would be otherwise, 
either through a direct connection or through tor via SOCKS? I have my 
own DNs server going on here, and it's pretty fast, though Tor is still 
obviously slow even when not tunneling DNS.

Just curious. Thanks!
