Actually, I bet the problem is a broken DNS setup, causing psql to spend
30 seconds trying to resolve the hostname "localhost" before it gives up
and resorts to a different way of resolving the hostname. Check your
DNS configuration --- for instance, are you pointing to a name server
that actually works?
