As Justin said, the timeout code is much better in 2.60 for DNSBLs. For Razor, DCC, and Pyzor, it's still can be rather pokey, unfortunately. You don't really need (or even want!) to set rbl_timeout to 10 or less in 2.60 because 10 is more like the *maximum* timeout. It's almost always lower in practice (the setting is 15 which means a "real" timeout of between 5 and 10 seconds if only one blacklist is running slow).
