Have any of you noticed in 8A294 that lookupd uses about 50-60% CPU when Safari is loading a web page?

I've also noticed that it seems to take Safari a while to actually start loading a page while lookupd is doing stuff, and then once it starts to load, Safari is quick. It also only does this when you are initially loading a website of a certain domain. ie. if I go to macosx.com the first time, it'll take a while to start loading, but then after it's loaded the site once, I can browse it as fast as normal.

Firefox 1.0 does not do this at all, and presumably it uses lookupd to find DNS entries as well.
