Allen Wittenauer commented on HADOOP-8121:
------------------------------------------
It isn't unrealistic for super large enterprises to have tens of thousands of
group definitions (one previous employer had just shy of 10k!). Is it possible
for someone to be in so many groups as to hit the search limit? Well, it
depends upon how the LDAP server is configured. If we don't want to fix this,
then it should at least be mentioned in the docs that search limits are not
supported and/or will result in unpredictable behavior.
