Sorry for the cross posting but I am ISC DHCP Server V3.1.2 and we were having an issue with clients taking an unusually long time receiving DHCP leases. On the server I realized that DHCPOFFERS are delayed. The server does not issue them right away. Here it took 3 minutes for the server to issue a DHCPOFFER.

In the meantime the server is handing out leases to other clients on the same subnet as well as to other subnets.
Any ideas why this happens?
Thanks,
