Did ldap machine suffix ever get fixed so that it can be in a sperate
container from ldap user suffix?
Is there any problem to be fix on samba side? I've been using separate 
container for machine without any problem ( almost 8 months now)

Yes, there was a problem, and maybe still is.
You are using separate containers for users and machines, because you 
probably search for them in the whole LDAP tree.

On systems with lots of machines and users this can lead to a bottleneck 
(searching for machines first in users, then in machines etc., instead 
of in machines only, and in users only if looking for users).

Same, always have, never had this problem.

 Yes. I did not specify filter on pam/nss_ldap. However the limitation is 
 coming from nss_ldap not samba.

Ah, I can see that.  We met this limitation a long time ago (NSS only
supports a single search base per object type, which actually seems
reasonable.  We simply structured the Dit in a different way -

dc..
dc..,ou=SAM
dc..,ou=SAM,ou=Groups
dc..,ou=SAM,ou=Entities
dc..,ou=SAM,ou=Entities,ou=People
dc..,ou=SAM,ou=Entities,ou=System Accounts
dc..,ou=SAM,ou=ipServices
etc...

NSS's account search base can be set to dc..,ou=SAM,ou=Entities for
account objects and will see both;  applications like Samba can be
split.  There is no need to search the 'whole LDAP tree', as that would
be bad since it also contains things like -

dc..,ou=Customers
dc..,ou=Access Control
etc...

- and may be huge.

If you insist on having a traditional dc..,ou=People that is simple
enough with a subordinate back-ldap backend that rewrites
ou=SAM,ou=Entities,ou=People to ou=People DN's.

You can still use 1 dedicated (slave) ldap server for each samba server 
as I do on my setup or using nscd to cache passwd, group etc.
