[Samba] Slow Kerberos Authentication

Update: I installed samba4 with the existing config, it's sped up slightly
but I'm seeing another error
After it's started gensec submechanism gse_krb5 it takes around 40 seconds
to resolve the hostname to FQDN
HOSTNAME -> hostname.local

I've got the entry in hosts and it's correct in DNS, what could be the
problem?
