Hi. I have an Xwiki Enterprise 3.4 installation and I'm studying the
integration with LDAP.

I managed to configure the authentication, I created the users and
mapped the groups with the LDAP server.

But I noticed that the performance dropped dramatically when using
LDAP auth, in comparison with local users, specifically it takes
around 10 seconds to access a page (down from <3sec).

So, I started monitoring the traffic between the xwiki machine and the
LDAP machine with tshark and I noticed that every time I click a link
in xwiki, there is a lot of traffic with LDAP. Is there some way to
improve this behaviour (I really don't understand why xwiki needs to
talk with the LDAP server on every page request...)? I see that this
is not a new issue [1], [2]. I also tried setting
xwiki.authentication.always=0 in xwiki.cfg but I didn't notice any
change (it being set to 0 by default already...). Would upgrading to
the latest stable version improve the situation?

Thanks for your time.
