[oi-dev] Yay Hipster!

[Gary Gendel]

The short story is that I've been struggling with an ssh login delay for 
several years with OpenSolaris and then OpenIndiana.  The delay ranged 
randomly from over a second to several 10s of seconds, the latter being 
pretty frustrating.  Over the years, I've tried everything (disabling 
DNS lookups, etc.) without success.  Because of the random nature of it, 
these experiments took a while for me to recognize that my efforts failed.

Bottom line is that the problem seems to have gone away after installing 
from the hipster repo.  I don't know which update did it especially 
since I waited to be sure that it wasn't lurking in the wings.  However, 
I feel confident after several weeks of no login delays that the problem 
is solved (whatever caused it).
