mDNS resolution is slow

[mcmillion]

Quick question (sorry for opening an issue, but I couldn't find an answer anywhere else):

I've got mDNS working and I can hit the aREST API on my ESP8266. Using the IP address is instant, but I've noticed that when using the hostname that resolution is fairly slow (4 or 5 seconds). Is this expected, or am I maybe doing something wrong?

It was slow for me, after first connection I send esp local IP (WiFi.localIP()) to the client and substitute url with local lP in javascript

Closing in view of #5442 with a full rewrite of mdns.
