High latency with tracd

[asdrubale@…]

In my network environment there is a local DNS server that can't resolve every IP number in the proper fqdn.

The TracHTTPRequestHandler subclass BaseHTTPRequestHandler that, by default, tries to log the fqdn of a client for every request.

This is the cause of a long latency between every request to the trac server.

For a simple workaround I've added this method to TracHTTPRequestHandler

    def address_string(self):
            """Return the client address formatted for logging.

            This version looks up the full hostname using gethostbyaddr(),
            and tries to find a name that contains at least one dot.

            """

            host, port = self.client_address[:2]
            return host

Obviously this logs the client ip address instead of the fqdn.
