that's a DNS problem. My guess is that your workstations
are not registering with a DNS server authoratative for your
local zone, and instead you're using your ISP's DNS servers.
If DNS doesn't work, Windows will resort to broadcasts and
that's pretty inefficient and takes a great amount of time.
So don't worry about the switches. They seem to be fine.
