    If your machine can't easily get it's own hostname, sometimes X and sendmail can be slow to start. Make sure you have the IP Addresses of your local host in /etc/hosts.

    /etc/resolv.conf is for specifying nameservers.

    I'd say /etc/hosts is more likely to slow you down. And also /etc/nsswitch.conf if you've modified it before.
