I agree with Eric.  I got away from dnsbl.org a couple years ago.  They
were just flat wrong and slow way too often.  I now only use
zen.spamhaus.org and it seems to be very up to date and I don't recall
ever having a slowness problem.

Keep in mind, the more RBL's you have the slower the process will be.  If
the message doesn't get kicked by the first RBL it goes to the second,
etc, etc.
