localhost is very slow when machine is connected to internet
============================================================

whatever speed the connection is, the local connection
is slower by about 1/3 to half.

Do a correct nat on your router or firewall.
It should look like this:

original source internal network
original destination public ip website
service http
xlated source original (internal network)
xlated destination internal ip website

As a result your firewall/router will redirect your request from
your internal network to the public ip address/dns name to your
internal ip address of the website.

Hope this makes sense to you :-)

check with ethereal, and check syslogs and apache log,
see if network is making any requests it can't resolve.
