Quick survey question for web interface users...

One of the most time consuming tasks when generating the Status tab is  
the "NTP Peer States" section.

Currently, I do this...

$ ntpq -p
      remote           refid      st t when poll reach   delay    
offset  jitter
=================================================
*10.10.50.4      172.26.0.53      2 u   61   64  377    0.406    
-7.164   0.768
+mighty.poclabs. 192.43.244.18    2 u   63   64  377   51.919   
-16.010   4.314
+smtp130.junkema 209.81.9.7       2 u   54   64  377   68.897    
-5.771   1.022
  LOCAL(0)        .LOCL.           5 l   62   64  377    0.000     
0.000   0.002

Alternatively, I could do this...

$ ntpq -pn
      remote           refid      st t when poll reach   delay    
offset  jitter
=================================================
*10.10.50.4      172.26.0.53      2 u   24   64  377    0.406    
-7.164   0.661
+63.240.161.99   192.43.244.18    2 u   27   64  377   51.919   
-16.010   4.344
+69.50.231.130   209.81.9.7       2 u   20   64  377   68.897    
-5.771   3.090
  127.127.1.0     .LOCL.           5 l   28   64  377    0.000     
0.000   0.002

which does not do a reverse DNS lookup of the peers, which at times,  
can take a few seconds.  More often an issue when using the ntp pool.

Request for opinions: (and don't say make it a Prefs option :-) )

No change (as the first example) or speed-up the Status tab display  
(as with the second example).

Thanks,
Lonnie
