Why not?  I have bind installed, and it gives me a big speedup on
name lookups when I put the line in my resolv.conf.  At least it does
now...  I don't know what was going wrong before.  

It would be nice if the resolv.conf didn't keep getting overwritten
without a mention of my local nameserver.  I just uncommented this line
in /etc/dhclient.conf, which should do it:

    prepend domain-name-servers 127.0.0.1;
