Is this not an IDENT lookup ? we have full reverse DNS lookups on and
it never takes more than a few seconds.

Can you see if you have the following lines in your config ? If not add
them (you may find rfc_query_timeout is set to 30s)

rfc1413_hosts = *
rfc1413_query_timeout = 0s

Let us know if this resolves the issue.

Cheers
