Or fix your DNS, if it's under your control.
If you have a named(8) running on your LAN, you should not have DNS timeouts.
It doesn't have to be authoritative -- set up a caching server on the same
machine that runs mysql and talk to it via localhost.
Take it from someone who just had to change all my static IPs -- keep IPs out
of your database connection code! ("Oh, THAT won't happen to me!" And then, it

Some of the current attempts at energy accounting, like the triple bottom line,
are an absolute a joke. They're an insult to children even in terms of their
intellectual content, because they try and compare vague abstractions of social
and environmental values — just dot pointed — against a completely econometric
financial accounting system of an organization which is actually doing the
work. -- David Holmgren
