That sounds like a name-resolution delay.  I expect you'll find
that "route -n" will respond immediately.  If so, either your
/etc/resolv.conf file doesn't specify a nameserver or you can't
reach the nameservers it does specify.  Of course, that might
just be because you can't get off your own guest LAN :-)
