Yes, but if the Java object reference contains a DNS name, omniORB has
to look it up.

Once the server has contacted the client, it keeps the TCP connection
open. There is no need to do any more look-ups.

The difference of using the Java client is that the Java ORB is
putting the host name in its object references; omniORB uses the IP
address, so no look-up is required.
