Reverse URL lookup

Quick question: Using Curl and Libcurl, when a connection is started,
curl seems to do a reverse lookup of the url (or IP address). Is there a
reason why it does this reverse lookup on every connection - and is
there a way to disable this?

The reason I ask is that we are doing a fair amount of work in
situations where we will not have a reverse zone, and the time out time
adds about 2 minutes to each transaction.
