If it's slow for exim -bV, then a router cannot affect it, because no
routers are run in that case.

If you were running Exim 4, I would suggest

exim -d+timestamp -bV

to see where the delay is from the debugging timestamps. Exim 3 doesn't
have that option. But perhaps if you run

exim -d9 -bV

and watch the output you will see where the delay happens.
