We had a very short delay in the net connect routine.  I cranked up
the delay quite a bit.  It should be better now (well, 24 hours from
now when you can get the changes via CVS).

George's high CPU-usage may be related to memory size and swapping.
I have an e-mail off to him regarding this possibility.
