That's really what I meant: when looking at the echo area, I'm given the
impression that the connection itself takes longer than it really does -
because the "outer" phase said "Opening connection", and it finishes
much later than the opening of the connection takes.

That by itself seems reasonable - chattiness in the echo area can be a
problem by itself.
