SSH and rhostsRSAauthenication

I have installed and configured SSH and several servers and I am able to slogin between servers without a password. However, this takes significantly longer than "normal" rlogin. I have been informed that using Rhostsauthenication or RhostsRSAauthenication will improve speed of connection. I have not been able to configure this correctly. I have setuid on ssh binary and modified the sshd_config to:
RhostsRSAauthenication yes
IgnoreRhosts no
RSAauthenication yes
I verified the ~/.shosts file is permissioned at 0400.
Still get the message "Rhosts authenication disabled" when doing ssh -v .

Please advise any information. Thank you!!
