From my understanding of how DNS resolution works, your #2 statement below doesn't make sense to me. DNS lookups use UDP only. TCP is only used for zone transfers. Therefore, this should not have affected resolution performance of a client resolver to the DNS server.

Can you correct my mis-understanding?

Bind can be configured to use TCP for queries (cf. the RES_USEVC option for the resolver (in <resolv.h>).
