The fact that you have the same problem with telnet suggests a DNS problem. My first guess is that the telnet and ftp daemons are trying to do a reverse lookup on your clients' IP addresses and failing. When the lookups finally time out, you get your session started. Make sure your server can do reverse lookups on your client IP's by whatever means is appropriate to your system and these delays will probably go.
