Well, if you include particulars in those performance examples: BIND
9.X, zone size Y, CPU Z.  But to me this doesn't seem very suitable for
a static document like RFC standard, and I'd primarily want to see such
examples in docs of the servers, as there they can be kept up to date. 
Still, I see no real harm in putting some performance example(s) into
RFC appendix, and they may just become irrelevant over time.
