"hg push" hangs for one minute (exactly one minute)

[Ernie Rael]

I've recently moved from a windows machine to a new linux laptop. I've 
got an ancient NAS which I use from both windows and linux; everything 
been good; read/write from linux and windows to the NAS OK.

I finally got around to doing a mercurial push to the NAS from linux 
today. It took a long time; it finally finished. I did another push, it 
quickly prints "no changes found", and then sits there for one minute 
and finally finishes. Windows native hg push to the NAS is as expected.

An hg push to a local filesystem doesn't pause.

Any idea how to track this down? Where's the timer? How to make it happy?
