Sounds like your server is sick.  If downloading a single sub-1k  
image is taking seconds upon seconds, something is seriously wrong.   
Do you have full control of the server, or is there someone at a  
hosting company that can look at this?  I wouldn't start worrying  
about apache settings (which are pretty reasonable out of the box)  
until you're sure that there's not some runaway process on the box  
chewing up all sorts of resources, or (probably more likely) some  
local network issue near the server.
