Here is the related upstream ticket

Did you open a ticket about this?

Unfortunately I can't view the content of that BZ (no access, I'm searching for 
an account at my current company that does), so any insight/summary on that one 
would be appreciated.
Fun fact just for info: we had to switch to rfc2307 (from 2307bis) because of 
another bug in sssd that ignores the setting to not do nested group searches, 
which resulted in a huge amount of extra ldap searches per user (1 per group).

There is already a BZ
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1490120.

I think in your setup (plain LDAP with rfc2307) the performance loss
when using ignore_group_members=false (the default) should be
acceptable.
