I gave a presentation on this at the DNS-OARC meeting last week:

https://www.dns-oarc.net/files/workshop-200911/Duane_Wessels.pdf

I was only able to test BIND (9.4.3) and Unbound (1.3.3) before the
workshop.

I've since learned that since my graphs only show 7 seconds after
the initial query, it misses Unbound's fallback to TCP, which
takes longer than that.
