Reverse DNS is evil... :)

You can disable DNS hostname lookups by starting |mysqld| with the |--skip-name-resolve| option. However, in this case, you can use only IP numbers in the MySQL grant tables.
If you have a very slow DNS and many hosts, you can get more performance by either disabling DNS lookups with |--skip-name-resolve| or by increasing the |HOST_CACHE_SIZE| define (default value: 128) and recompiling |mysqld|.
Another issue... why was this even having a problem?
Are you not running JDBC connection pooling? This should have only happened once and then moved on since the connection is open.
I don't think MySQL is doing this per query.
