Has anyone experienced this before?:

[root@tux350 /root]# ftp localhost 
Connected to localhost.localdomain. 

Then, 1 and a half minutes later (this delay is consistent):

220 tux350.reisersun FTP server (Version wu-2.6.1(1) Tue Oct 3 14:29:19 CEST 
2000) ready.
Name (localhost:root): 

Then, I can login just fine (to localhost of course, which is also 
"tux350.reisersun").
But I shouldn't have to wait 1.5 minutes just to get the login prompt!

I am using the defaults for  /etc/xinetd.d/wu-ftpd, which are (in LM 7.2):
# default: on
# description: The wu-ftpd FTP server serves FTP connections. It uses \
#       normal, unencrypted usernames and passwords for authentication.
service ftp
{
        socket_type             = stream
        wait                    = no
        user                    = root
        server                  = /usr/sbin/in.ftpd
        server_args             = -l -a
        log_on_success          += DURATION USERID
        log_on_failure          += USERID
        nice                    = 10
}

What is wrong?  How can I speed up ftp?
Please do not suggest that I use proftpd or some other alternative :)
I want to know what is wrong with my current config before I change to a
better ftp server!

Thanks in advance,
George
