slow dhcp on 1G backbone.

[Brad Dameron]

You sure you don't have a duplex mismatch or something? I have all my DHCP servers on gig and don't see any issues. This would seem more like a network issue than a application issue. Your not using Windows for the OS are you?

Problem: dhcp client requests are slower when our dhcp server is running on a Gig backbone with a gig switch.  Client workstations have 100 NICs.

If change the server NIC to 100 and the switch to 100 - dhcp requests are almost instant.  But we loose the benefit of having a gig backbone.  We need the gig backbone because we are running 200+ diskless workstations.
