Roughly how many zones are you loading and how large are they?
Have you configured local cache files for the remote zones?

What errors did you get in the /var/svc/log entry for the service?
(typically in /var/svc/log/network-dns-server:default.log)

And did named log anything in /var/adm/messages?
