Changing just the daemon while not fixing the real resons why another one does not work as expected is not wise in my eyes. But in your other mailing you are right, that DROPing ident requests is a dumb thing. Anyway, it's not the case in here that the identd make the problems. It's DNS lookups and maybe not resoving reverse lookups. It's a common issue with other net applications as ssh, telnet or ftp logins too.
