Hi Colin,
This is what I have in my configs:
---/etc/proftpd.conf---
<snip>
ServerName "ProFTPD"
ServerType inetd
DeferWelcome off
DefaultServer on
DefaultRoot / wheel
DefaultRoot / admin-users
DefaultRoot ~/../../.. site-adm
DefaultRoot ~ !site-adm
UseReverseDNS off
IdentLookups off
</snip>
---
---/etc/pam.d/ftp---
#%PAM-1.0
auth requisite /lib/security/pam_nologin.so
auth requisite /lib/security/pam_listfile.so item=user sense=deny \
file=/etc/ftpusers onerr=succeed
auth requisite /lib/security/pam_shells.so
auth required /lib/security/pam_unix.so nullok
account required /lib/security/pam_unix.so
session required /lib/security/pam_unix.so

---/etc/xinetd.d/proftpd---
# default: off
# $Id: proftpd-xinetd,v 1.1 2004/02/26 17:57:39 thias Exp $
# description: The ProFTPD FTP server serves FTP connections. It uses \

service ftp
{
socket_type = stream
wait = no
user = root
server = /usr/sbin/in.proftpd
log_on_success += DURATION
nice = 10
disable = no
instances = 80
}

Lately I had mentioned that time to connect has increased to ~10 sec.
Probably, after I have updated to proftpd-1.3.0
But I am OK with that.
Another trick I could suggest is to open your workstation firewall to Ident
port (113).
See http://www.grc.com/port_113.htm
Good luck!
Best,
