it's hard to say precisely, but the last zone in the nsd.zones file
becomes available after approximately 80-90 seconds, and the total
cpu time consumed by the process is also about 80 seconds after the
nsd process goes idle. the log file also shows "nsd started"
approximately 80-90 seconds after starting.

# date; /ms/svc/nsdx/bin/nsdc start

Aug 26 16:56:04 localhost nsd[2386]: [ID 702911 daemon.notice] nsd started, pid 2386

there is still measurable cpu activity until approximately 3 minutes
after starting, although that might just be a time-averaging effect in
'top'.
