It may also be a configuration. I see a difference in performance of Firefox if I use dnsmasq rather than BIND. It only occurs if I open a LOT of heavy graphics pages sequentially fast, such as a vendors collection at eBay where the pages have a lot of commona material. Maybe some cache problems. Still looking into it. Different problem from yours in the specific, but it does illustrate a point. What are *you* using for DNS? BIND or dnsmasq?
what do you mean? this is a desktop client machine, it uses external dns or that internal nscd or whatever thats inside the linux libraries. no bind or stomthing. it is not a dns server. it uses external dns servers. whatever.
Desktops can certainly benefit from a local caching DNS service, especially one that caches across reboots.
My desktop doesn't need to be a DNS server in any traditional sense to benefit from a machine local instance of dnsmasq. Of course to feel that benefit you'll need to make sure the first in /etc/resolv.conf is 127.0.0.1.
If, as others in this tread argue, it is a DNS issue, that this is one avenue you may find efficacious. Either way, it is of value.
I had this very effect also a few times. Especially after an update of the dbus package. It turned out that freedesktop.login1 service timed out at boot. I did systemctl restart dbus-org.freedesktop.login1.service and all was back to normal. I haven't figured out why it times out until now.
