I am getting a lot of this in my logs:

Nov 4 20:33:07dnsmasq[62369]: reading /var/db/dhcpd.leases
Nov 4 20:33:07 dnsmasq[62369]: bad name in /var/db/dhcpd.leases
Nov 4 20:33:47 dnsmasq[62369]: reading /var/db/dhcpd.leases
Nov 4 20:33:47 last message repeated 2 times

I do have "Enable DNS forwarder" and "Register DHCP leases in DNS 
forwarder" checked. Is there a reason for this.

I have also noticed that I have number of DNS timeouts while using 
Safari. The second time I try to load a page, I'm fine.

Using dig, I have times from ~70ms to 200ms average. However some are 
more like 4000+ms (but will be low ms the 2nd time I dig for them). Is 
there a way to figure out how to improve this? Pings to the nameservers 
used on m0n0 are around 60-80ms

Are the 2 things related? What can I do to solve them?

Thanks!
Aaron
