Maybe machine 3 has ssh1 compatability on, and machine 2 is using ssh1 (I
think that is still the default in openssh). Try 'ssh -2 machine3' from
machine 2. You would notice a deley using protocol 1 because the server
has to wait for sshd1 to start.

Could also be DNS issues, network issues, high load...
