Freezing when joining any server.

Whenever I connect to any server it freezes for several seconds before connecting to the server. This has happened for a few versions now, until I found a fix to it (which has been outdated by 1.6.4, and so the problem persists) If this fix could be implemented in the vanilla version so that no one else has the same problem, that' d be great.

Development Console Log only produces the server I'm connecting too, no errors or such.
