asterisk users - Nov 2006 - Extension Response Slow

Here is my Extensions.conf file (Default Context).  When an  
individual calling in dials the extension, the response time seems  
very slow.  It doesn't immediately go to the next step, but hangs out  
for a few seconds (silence)...  Suggestions?

Thanks in advance... /pj

That doesn't look correct.  What is it supposed to do?
