Well, it depends. How *slow* is slow?

And also, have you cranked up the logging on the auth part?

        log level = passdb:10 auth:10

Also have you set: 

        passdb backend = ldapsam ldap://auth.yourhost.com

I am also assuming you have all the LDAP stuff setup properly, of course as 
needed/if needed.

        ldap admin dn
        ldap delete dn
        ldap filter
        ldap group suffix
        ldap idmap suffix
        ldap machine suffix
        ldap passwd sync
        ldap replication sleep
        ldap suffix
        ldap timeout
        ldap user suffix

Hopefully, if you have good throughput, its all in these settings. If
you don't have good throughput... well time to check the networking
tweaks for samba.

Also, if the delay turns out to be a lookup delay, try hard coding the
name and ipaddr in the /etc/hosts file on the AIX box. This sometimes is
a good work around for DNS queries gone bad.
