I've noticed my bash autocomplete will frequently hang.
System info:
I'm running Ubuntu 14.04.1
Bash Autocomplete 2.1-4
Authentication using sssd configured for kerberos and ldap
Suspected Cause:
in _quote_readline_by_ref() has a line elif [[ $1 == ~* ]]; then
It appears this line causes sssd to make an ldap request for all the
accounts which take a couple of seconds.
I'm fairly certain this is the cause because if I delete that elif, the
delay goes away and there are no ldap requests.
Is this a bug or is it intended to retrieve all home directories?
If the path to complete begins with ~, that's indeed the purpose.
However, your problem is not specific to bash completion: if every call
to some NSS function, such as getpwent(), triggers an LDAP request,
you'll have exactly the same result running 'ls -l' in any directory.
And you'd better configure local caching to avoid overriding your
network and your ldap server.
