Thanks Jeremy!
It was the lack of a reverse DNS entry. I had the host resolved to an
IP but now reverse arpa entry. I added the DNS PTR record and viola!
I would have never though of / figured that one out.

FWIW, this sounds like a slow-to-respond DNS resolver. Are Apache and
MySQL on seperate machines, by any chance? Or, alternatively, are you
connecting locally on the machine using the machine's DNS name?
E.g.: mysql_connect(foo.example.com, ...) instead of
mysql_connect(localhost, ...)
Can you try this:
Whatever name you are using in mysql_connect(), run this:
$ host foo.example.com
Then, take the IP that gives you and do the same:
$ host 1.2.3.4
Mainly you're looking for the delay in this second step.
