server DNS question

I'm having a lot of trouble with a certain script on my server. The guy that wrote the script blames it on DNS issues with my server and all the different sponsors server for hosted galleries. Which I kinda think is funny being everything was working fine one day, then the next it's all fucked up.

Basically what's happening is my server connection is extremely slow when connecting to other servers through this script.. Long story short I can't scan hosted galleries to add to my sites and I need to fix this issue.

My basic question is, how can I test my connection speed from my server to another server? I'm totally clueless on dedicated servers and unix OS's. I need to find out if it is indeed a DNS issue or if it's something messed up with the script.

BTW the server is running Free BSD, can anyone help?
