Big-O notation characterizes the upper bound of algorithmic complexity.
The lookup process is bounded by n iterations.  Wildcards do not change the
upper bound to a constant lookup time.  Just as the NXDOMAIN in ODUP does
not change its time complexity from O(n) to O(1).  The bounding remains
O(n) in the current draft--or O(n*m) if you consider the service lookups.
