First, I don't see a SSLSessioCache directive in your config. Without
this, it's clear that the server renegotiated the certs every time, of
course. Second, if your connections are slow, perhaps you're using also
a SSLRandSeed /dev/random somewhere in your remaining config part and
/dev/random is a blocking device on your platform. Then use /dev/urandom
(if available) or the built-in random source.
