There are two thing to check in the Apache config to make sure DNS is
not the thing slowing you down.
HostnameLookups defaults to On in Apache2, but defaulted to off in
Apache1. Check that setting.
Also, if you use Allow and Deny directives with domain names, Apache
does a double reverse triple lindy DNS lookup (or something like
that). That would slow things down alot, but not affect ssh, ftp, etc.
Regardless, my guess is it's something with Apache2 that is causing
the slow down. Have you tried Apache1.3 under 10.4? I haven't
experienced any performance slow down under 10.4 using 1.3.
