names -> ip resolves take time . not caching the name -> ip result will take MUCH MORE TIME :)) > > Doesnt make a difference if I use Apache/AJP/Tomcat or Direct to > Tomcat web > server. If you had a Unix system i would say your resolve.conf is messed, normaly a system looks FIRST to your local hosts.conf AND THAN asks a nameserver for the IP to a given name ( localhost ). I guess your system asks the nameserver first and looks then locally for localhost ip. Check your TCP/IP settings .
