  Yes.  The LDAP query results aren't cached.

  Yes, the solution is to not configure so many queries that the server
slows down.

  For LDAP-Group checking, no.

  That may be possible with source code patches.  i.e. If an LDAP server
is marked "dead", don't try to contact it for a few seconds.  That would
help your configuration a lot.  But your configuration is an artificial
one that highlights a problem.
