I noticed, on my Linux server, that MySQL makes a DNS lookup anyway.
Even if the IP is used or not. It normally digs on the PTR record. I

added all the PTR records of the clients that were connecting to the
server, it was fast again.

James, I think you've found the problem. For the benefit of us
novices, what is the PTR record? After which I can add this to my
/etc/hosts, which should help.
If there is anybody who knows how to build a DNS clean MySQL, I would
be very interested in knowing.

Ben Clewett.
From the manual <http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/dns.html>, "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."
