I do not like to send the password in the plain ASCII format, while
binding to the LDAP server.
But, the requests and response that are sent in the LDAP session can be
sent in plain ASCII format.
What mechanism I should use for it?

Yes, use a real SASL mechanism like DIGEST-MD5.

I suppose, I cannot use the SSL mechanism as it involves the encryption,
decryption both at the binding time and also for the requests, responses
that are sent. This will be a performance kill for my LDAP client-server
setup.
