I tried setting up /etc/hosts first. I always used to do that, but have fallen by the wayside recently. It didn't help in this problem.
I then enabled the network service - and yes, the delays are gone. I guess that once again it is the shortcomings of networkManager that have caused the problems.
So - are there any problems associated with running both the network service and networkManager? It seems to me that they could conflict, since both expect to be in control.
