I think trusted=yes would make a big difference, also if possible use
LDAP over a domain socket ldapi:/// rather than a network socket.  But
no matter what I think enumerating that many users is going to be slow;
I'm curious why you have to enumerate all the users,  in the security
tab don't you perform a search?

Also make sure all you user's groups match to a samba mapped group;  we
saw awhile ago that having Samba users in groups that weren't mapped
seemed to slow things down inside Samba somewhere.  (Maybe this is
resolved in more recent versions, this was awhile ago).
