The reason behind cheese' delay might be that it takes time to detect
the webcam. You can run 'gstreamer-properties' and set default input
in video tab.

Regarding firewall - By default no servers accepting incoming
connections are installed. Hence firewall is not enabled by default.

P.S. - It will be great if you can write your queries in proper
sentences so they are easy to read and respond.
