Not here. I've got broadband (cable-modem) at around 275k average and its
pretty fast.
Are you sure that you don't have a hostname conflict somewhere? I've seen that
slow systems way down.

I would suppose that it would depend on -how- its brought down. How are you
doing it? I usually use (as root/su):
ifdown eth0
service network stop
or
service network restart
"ifup" and "ifdown" in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts here are links into
/sbin/ifdown and /sbin/ifup, so I'm assuming that they are run when I issue
any of the above commands.
