Incredibly slow revlet in Win 7

[Alex Tweedly]

There probably is no different IP address for the sub-domain (or domain).

For instance,

loki.on-rev.com is 74.54.153.70

tweedly.org is hosted on loki, and tweedly.org (and www.tweedly.org) are 
also 74.54.153.70
(and all my other domains on on-rev are the same as well).

when you send an http request, it uses the url embedded in the request 
to determine which hosted site should receive the request.

What you could get him to try is to resolve the name immediately before 
he sends the request (e.g. open a terminal/command window and ping it). 
That should ensure that the IP address is resolved and cached and ensure 
that DNS issues aren't in the way.

Sorry, I don't have any alternative suggestion about what the problem 
might be, but DNS doesn't sound likely to me.
