The time is due to windows resolving the network names. If you switch off
network name resolution in the capture dialog it will be faster.

MAC names are all local, so they wouldn't be a problem.

I don't know what transport names are (anyone want to enlighten me?) but
they dont seem to be a problem on my system.
