I cannot reproduce this.  I get the same 0.330s time with both current
trunk and Emacs 24.3.  That's on this system:

  eliz <at> fencepost:~/bzr/emacs/trunk$ uname -a
  Linux fencepost.gnu.org 2.6.32-48-server #1trisquel3 SMP Mon Jun 17 20:00:36 UTC 2013 x86_64 GNU/Linux

My crystal ball says that your TERM variable points to xterm, but your
terminal either isn't xterm or doesn't support the kind of queries
that xterm--query on xterm.el uses.  That function indeed waits for 2s
for the terminal to respond.
