I'm not sure how but if nobody has already done it I'll probably try to figure it out. There are night shifters in the household so I would probably need additional hardware and run a separate testing network since any downtime at all will get the complaining going.
You should be able to host another one in parallel with whatever you're doing now and run some tests based on your typical use cases. Set the client to use that specific one for DNS.
Honestly, though, I doubt you'll see much difference. Clients make a DNS request and cache it, so it's not like it'll affect download speeds. Unless DNS responses are delayed by human-observable amounts (half second, whole seconds, or more) then a millisecond or two in either direction isn't going to make a noticeable difference.
