The problem I was referring to happens on the *server* side. For example, after you connect the server might want to log a message like "connection from host.foo.com". But the reverse lookup on the client's IP is slow, and causes things to stall until it completes or times out.

But it sounds now like that's not the problem you're having anyway. :-)
