I agree with checking for ident queries. This is the primary cause of long connect delays.

The most common way to configure/repair away ident is:

In your xinetd configuration files (such as /etc/xinetd.d/imap), check to see if there is any line with "USERID". If so, delete all such lines with extreme prejudice.

In some systems, ident is invoked by other mechanisms; but the above is the most common.
