Firefox on Linux doesn't like my embedded webserver

We manufacture a web enabled device with a very light web server implementation. Safari, IE and Firefox Windows all work very well and load my pages immediately. Firefox on Linux can take up to 5 seconds to load a very small (about 4 lines of XML) page. Any clues as to what could be causing this problem?

Thanks, Lance

Maybe an IPv6 issue. See IPv6 : http://kb.mozillazine.org/Error_loading_websites#IPv6

Thanks for that cor-el. I had already tried disabling IPv6. Something else I tried was to serve the same XML file from Apache - loads fine.
