I don't believe I am using conntrack - not even sure what that is.

At this point, I am inclined to think that I just didn't notice this 
occasional DNS slowdown when I was on FC1, and then when the hype about 
IPv6-related problems showed up in FC2, I noticed that I had similar 
problems.

Comcast probably just sucks every now and then.
