Nope, that wasn't exactly what I meaned, but I've foud it myself that all resolved domain names and IP which represent them are stored in memory.
Database can be dumped via "rndc dumpdb" - you will get named_dump.db file in your cached dir (specified in named.conf file)
Now the other question :
can I load dumped base (named_dump.db) into bind's memory again? - because all remembered assotiations are lost after service is restarted

open your named.conf and the first line in options should show you where it stores its cache. Hope it helps.
