Five Rust-level changes: swapping Vec/String for Box<[T]>/Box<str> to drop capacity fields, merging answer, authority and additional sections into one list with u16 offsets, making record owners Option<Box<Name>>, boxing large RecordData variants to stop 144-byte padding waste on A records, and storing record data as raw wire-format bytes (Cloudflare). Per-entry allocation fell from 1.1 KB to 461 bytes, insert throughput rose 43% to 893K entries per second, lookup latency dropped 19% to 670 ns, production p99 memory went from 9.3 GB to 5.3 GB. The enum-padding one generalizes: a single large variant makes every instance of that enum pay for it.
