nsswitch.conf is very sensitive in HPUX. strange things can happen if this config is wrong because it does try to do lookup and resolutions, apart from slow logins have also seen other things like doing swinstall can also be affected.
First login to a few putty sessions as root.
Then try remove the dns. and see if it improves.

If you really having dns make sure you have resolvable name server entries in your /etc/resolv.conf

audit_user
audit_user(4) File Formats audit_user(4)NAME
audit_user - per-user auditing data file
SYNOPSIS
/etc/security/audit_user
DESCRIPTION
audit_user is an access-restricted database that stores per-user auditing preselection data. You can use the audit_user file with other
authorization sources, including the NIS map audit_user.byname and the NIS+ table audit_user. Programs use the getauusernam(3BSM) routines
to access this information.
The search order for multiple user audit information sources is specified in the /etc/nsswitch.conf file. See nsswitch.conf(4). The lookup
follows the search order for passwd(4).
The fields for each user entry are separated by colons (:). Each user is separated from the next by a newline. audit_user does not have
general read permission. Each entry in the audit_user file has the form:
username:always-audit-flags:never-audit-flags
The fields are defined as follows:
username User's login name.
always-audit-flags Flags specifying event classes to always audit.
never-audit-flags Flags specifying event classes to never audit.
For a complete description of the audit flags and how to combine them, see audit_control(4).
