Seems like a kernel bug to me.  All modern TCP stacks have shortcuts for
local connections.  What platform are you on exactly?

(BTW, this is not an argument against having JDBC support unix-socket
connections; I can see security reasons for that.  But there should not
be performance reasons for it.)
