I have a works laptop containing GNU emacs 23.1.1. When I am at the office, connected to our office network, emacs works at normal speed. When I am at home, emacs takes a long time to load on the same laptop, and is often generally unresponsive, with long pauses in its operation. This happens consistently on every occasion. All my other programs work normally, as expected. What's going on?

This is the solution that Jason Rumney proposed, and it seems to have made a major improvement for me:
