Makes perfect sense to me. Since you obvoously know more than I do about this I will defer to your experience. I did not mean to imply that the hosts entry should not be made but that the ServerName should be set. I thought that was different than the ipaddress in the <VirtualHost ipaddress> tag itself. Are you saying that setting ServerName at all causes the slow down?
