On a whim, I restored to factory defaults and re-entered my configuration settings. I no longer have the problem waiting 5-10 minutes on "configuring WAN interface..." so something in the config file must be causing this problem. I've carried the config file from version to version for quite a while.
Also, when I upgraded to version 0.79 I had a warning on the terminal that the configuration file was created by a *newer* version of pfsense than was currently on the box (I was previously at 0.77). I can send a password-sanitized version of my config file if that would help.
