It looks like the F18 install writes out ifcfg-* files with
"DHCPV6C=yes", which should probably not be set by default, especially
since so few environments (even IPv6 environments) will have a IPv6 DHCP
server. Comment out that line or set it to "no" and it should fix the
slowdown.
I've filed this in Bugzilla:

I don't speak for anybody but myself - that's enough trouble.
