Hi, I get the same timeout on OS X (over a DSL business line)
with: ruby 1.6.7 (2002-03-01) [powerpc-darwin6.3]

I ran a tcpdump when executing the
Net::HTTP.get_print 'ad.doubleclick.net', '/'
line and was surprised to see NO tcp packets transmitted to
ad.doubleclick.net at any time.

I ran a ktrace - but it's my first time using it and I'm not
sure how to interpret what I'm seeing.. :)  Why is the SIGALRM
happening before the socket calls?  The call listed as taking
all the time is the "51.224883 CALL  socket(0x2,0x1,0x6)"...

...anyway... On a lark I became curious about DNS lookup time
and tried from the shell:

$ host ad.doubleclick.net

...and it took an awful long time to come back under OS X.

So from ruby I tried the literal IP addr for ad.doubleclick.net:

irb(main):007:0> Net::HTTP.get_print '216.73.86.70', '/'
<html>
<body bgcolor=#ffffff>
<b>This is a DoubleClick advertising server.</b>
<p><center>
<a href="http://www.doubleclick.net">
Click here for the DoubleClick home page.</a>
<p>
<a href="http://www.doubleclick.net/company_info/about_doubleclick/privacy/">
Click here for privacy information.</a>
</body>
</html>
nil

The above is under OS X...

So it *seems* maybe some DNS related thing under OS X and not 
Ruby specifically..... (?)



Hope this helps,

Bill
