Have you disabled Solaris nscd? It is single-threaded caching name
service and can have a very bad inpact on concurrent DNS lookups. Anyway
it is quite useless on a Squid machine as Squid caches names on it's
own.

"/etc/init.d/nscd stop" may do the trick (I think there is some
configuration file that should be updated as well. I don't have access
to a Solaris system at home).
