I have also suspected the pac file some time ago. We have tried
to use !(isResolvable(host)) to try and make the browser give up
faster, with mixed results. In general this made things a little
faster but we still saw between 2 and 12 tries before the browser
gave up trying to resolve. This was still very noticable on sites
with lots of external content.

I'm sorry but I don't quite understand what you mean. Could you
please elaborate this on the basis of this excerpt from our pac
file?
function FindProxyForURL(url, host)
{
var proxy1 = "PROXY 192.168.240.29:8080";
var proxy2 = "PROXY 172.16.1.30:8080";
if ( dnsDomainIs(host, ".intern")
|| shExpMatch(url, "*//localhost*")
|| shExpMatch(url, "*//127*")
|| isInNet(host, "192.168.1.0", "255.255.255.0")
// more lines with subnets
|| isPlainHostName(host)
)
{
return "DIRECT";
// Internal
}
else if ( shExpMatch (host, "int1.fujitsu.co.jp")
|| shExpMatch(host, "int2.fujitsu.co.jp")
// more lines with WAN domains
)
{
return proxy2;
// WAN
}
else
{
return proxy1;
// Internet
}
Basically what we do is return one proxy for WAN sites (depending on the
domain name), another proxy for normal internet traffic or DIRECT for local
sites.

the browser apparently needs to resolve the IP before itdesides whether to
use proxy or not. It may be a problem of the .pac file.

check the .pac content. If you use IP's in it, they are probably going to
get resolved from given hostname.
