I'm having a problem with IP Masq on a multihomed RedHat 7.0 box, running kernels 2.4.22 or 2.2.19. I've searched Google high and low to no avail. The box is connected to an Ethernet LAN and an Ethernet-connected cable modem, and performs IP Masq for the LAN.
Logged onto console, with an empty ipchains or iptables rule set, pinging yahoo.com shows 70ms of latency. However, if I add an IP Masq rule, then ping yahoo.com from the Linux box itself, I show latency of 0.5 to 1.4 *seconds*.
For what it's worth, I can not reproduce this problem using a Red Hat Linux kernel. Consider using a supported kernel, at least for testing purposes.
