No, that was not it.  But I did finally track it down.  There was one  
additional difference in the software configuration that I had  
forgotten about.  The CentOS 5.1 system is in a different NIS domain  
and it has Kerberos enabled.  We are going to move to an integrated  
NIS/AD environment to have a single sign-on for Windows and UNIX/ 
Linux, and I was planning to roll that out at the same time as CentOS  
5.1.  The performance issue went away when I used a local account to  
do the build, and also on another CentOS 5.1 system (on identical HW)  
that was bound to the old NIS domain.

Needless to say, we can not roll out CentOS 5.1 in the new NIS  
domain.  I will be talking to the corporate IT folks tomorrow to  
track down what is causing this issue.

Thanks for all the help,
Alfred
