Please let me be clear, this is not a question about whether or not to
use passwords. This is a question of how to determine the cause of and
remedy a slowdown retrieving data from PostgreSQL when using LDAP(S) to
authenticate PostgreSQL users. One of the sideline questions would be
how to achieve the same effect by using a different scheme. I should
further clarify that a major requirement would be that the scheme would
need to work in our current environment without having to re-engineer
the client applications. That would entail the need to pass a username
and password as we have traditionally done.
Any friendly assistance with LDAP(S) to that end is welcome.
Have been following this thread and have not answered previously as
LDAP/AD is not something I really know about. Still strikes me as
similar to another LDAP thread:
https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/CAKeZVDov%2Bj2ZfUuSXNN-98_Nn_kAXr2e7UmKHhFNODHuEnUwUg%40mail.gmail.com
In that post the OP found that supplying an IP address instead of a host
name sped up the process.
Have you tried that?
It may not be a permanent solution, but it might help identify where the
problem is.
