Thanks for the reply. 

Regarding the "snmptrap" (not snmptrapd, right?) startup time, should we 
consider this a bug? Or will it be improved in next versions? I also tried it 
in net-snmp version 5.1.2 and same behavior was noticed.

Please note that I am only using SNMPv1. I will try to create a sample program 
that will just send a SNMP trap. Hopefully, it is already in the tutorial. I am 
just a novice net-snmp coder so if anyone have any helpful link regarding this, 
feel free to post it. Thanks!

Regards,
Alfred

I'd suggest using a longer running application for sending traps.  I
would bet if you implemented a program that just sent traps and stayed
running that it would be faster.  I'm betting that the startup time of
snmptrap is what is killing you here.  Maybe because you're using
SNMPv3 users?  If so, changing from passwords on the command line
prompt to localized keys would greatly speed things up.
