Comment #37 on issue 12754 by [email protected]: "Resolving host" takes  
forever; disabling prefetching helps
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=12754

Hello!

I'm a chrome user who faced the same 5-15 second problem with resolving  
host.

I guess there is a problem with the dns server you are using. I solved the  
problem by
doing this:
    1. In the System menu, click Preferences, then click Network Connections.
    2. Select the connection for which you want to configure Google Public  
DNS. For
example:
           * To change the settings for an Ethernet connection, select the  
Wired tab,
then select your network interface in the list. It is usually called eth0.
           * To change the settings for a wireless connection, select the  
Wireless
tab, then select the appropriate wireless network.
    3. Click Edit, and in the window that appears, select the IPv4 Settings  
tab.
    4. If the selected method is Automatic (DHCP), open the dropdown and  
select
Automatic (DHCP) addresses only instead. If the method is set to something  
else, do
not change it.
    5. In the DNS servers field, enter the Google Public DNS IP addresses,  
separated
by a space: 8.8.8.8  8.8.4.4
    6. Click Apply to save the change. If you are prompted for a password or
confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
    7. Test that your setup is working correctly; see Testing your new  
settings below.
    8. Repeat the procedure for additional network connections you want to  
change.

And after that editing resolv.conf because it was not edited by the first  
operation:
# Edit /etc/resolv.conf:

sudo vi /etc/resolv.conf

# If any nameserver lines appear, write down the IP addresses for future  
reference.
# Replace the nameserver lines with, or add, the following lines:

nameserver 8.8.8.8
nameserver 8.8.4.4

# Save and exit.
# Restart any Internet clients you are using.

Excuse my english, but is not my native language.
