I think Dreamweaver's HTTP/1.1 stack is broken. Essentially, it waits for the server to close the connection (without specifying any Connection: close header), and since Tomcat will persist the connection, it takes 30s to do each HTTP operation (that's the default connection timeout in Tomcat). Use the HTTP/1.0 connector with Dreamweaver. The new HTTP/1.1 connector will allow you to specify a list of restricted user agent (when one is used, the connector will degrade itself to HTTP/1.0).
