This is an annoyance, but I haven't been able to figure out why. Only under OpenVZ containers do I see this issue. I'm using the latest stable centos 5.9 kernel. When yum first tries to run the fastestmirror plugin it waits 1-3 minutes and then runs the mirror speeds (as seen w/ verbose plugin mode). After that things run fast, including rebuilding the plugin host file. I'm not sure what it's doing prior to running the DNS queries, but it's quite annoying. This happens on ALL my openvz installations (guests only). Runs fine on the host. Anyone run into this? It has also been doing this for the last couple of years. Changing the resolv.conf doesn't seem to make a difference. Thanks!
