I've been lucky !

Thanks to your advices, I quickly pinned down the lag to a call to
gethostbyaddr() .  I fixed it by installing a caching name server on
my box.  Further improvement can be achieved by putting the hostname
of the machine in /etc/hosts if you don't expect it to change between
reboots.

Maybe the FQDN should be cached by the framework to prevent this weird
slowdown to happen to other people.

Mandrake does install a local name server by defaults : tmdns .  The
default configuration doesn't do any caching though.
