Do you have two of them?  The usual cause of noticeable slowness is that the 
first one is not responding so you fail to the 2nd.  Or you are looking up 
unqualified hostnames and the clients have several domains in their search list 
and the one that succeeds isn't first.

If your main DNS server is slow, you could run a caching version locally - just 
add your main server as a 'forwarder' in named.conf and set resolve.conf to use 
127.0.0.1 first.
