An uncached cname request can take two requests to your name nameservers.
The benefit of a cname is that you don't have to update it if the A record
that it aliases ever changes.

I want to establish a new subdomain for my main domain. This will be

through setting up a new A record or by using a CNAME entry.

Is there any advantage/disadvantage to one over the other?
