I was able to reduce the login Speed by changing this file
/etc/xinetd.d/proftpd
 
Found a post about xinetd and slow logins But not sure about the security
implicactions
(http://www.wains.be/index.php/2006/01/24/slow-logins-under-proftpd-using-xi
netd/)
 
 
My log Before:
 
Jan 13 12:18:15 maria xinetd[2909]: START: ftp pid=25451 from=x.x.x.x
Jan 13 12:18:55 maria proftpd[25451]: 192.168.254.121 (x.x.x.x[x.x.x.x]) -
FTP session opened. <-- Login took 40 seconds
 
Changed this file /etc/xinetd.d/proftpd
(just changed one line)
 
from 
 
log_on_success          += DURATION USERID
 
 
to

log_on_success          += DURATION
 
 
and now Logins on 10 seconds, (some improvement ....  at least )
 
Jan 13 12:37:32 maria xinetd[28281]: xinetd Version 2.3.14 started with
libwrap loadavg labeled-networking options compiled in.
Jan 13 12:37:32 maria xinetd[28281]: Started working: 1 available service
Jan 13 12:37:37 maria xinetd[28281]: START: ftp pid=28292 from=x.x.x.x
Jan 13 12:37:47 maria proftpd[28292]: 192.168.254.121 (x.x.x.x[x.x.x.x]) -
FTP session opened. <- Now took 10 seconds a slightly better

 
hope it helps
