hi, Aki tnuomi,  
Thank you for  suggestion. I found pdns always get the fastest one from the front of result returned by function "SyncRes::shuffleInSpeedOrder”. If a slow one at the back has no opportunity to be choosed, how pdns know it become fast. I can not find the source code make pdns query the slow one.  

on the other hand, I found there is a houseKeeping thread which will erase the stale speed value of a dns server . If a slow dns at the back of t_sstorage->nsSpeeds map, it will be erased because of rarely to be queried, and only fast dns server will have its speed updated by this code "  t_sstorage->nsSpeeds[*tns].submit(*remoteIP, lwr.d_usec, &d_now);” at syncres.cc:1003.
. And then, only dns servers which are mostly queried will stay in t_sstorage->nsSpeeds map. It make me puzzled.
