That is huge.  I think anything >100ms is going to be noticable.

This large number surprises me because the numeric resolver needs 1
round-robin dispatch and the retry timer should start very low (<10ms
I think).

Can you give details of the setup so I can reproduce and profile it?

I wonder if there is something weird like unnecessary DNS resolution going on.

Thanks,
Stefan
