What do you recommend then? DNS doesn't usually change that often, but if you mess it up when it does, you're in for some pain if TTLs are high!

Not the one you're replying to, but I'd keep TTL high normally and lower it one TTL ahead of a planned change.

    I would define high as "double time needed to fix a dns issue" and account for weekends

    This is the way.
