If you get either 1 or 2 instances of each message (not more than 2)
then the cause definitely is a DNS timeout (probably checking RBL/DNSBL).
The result (DNS failure) is cached, so the second time the message is
accepted much faster, so the sender doesn't repeat anymore.

I'm talking of timeouts while querying external servers, if my guess is
right then upgrade of your hardware will not help.
