Of course not !

But what you specify shed some light on why is it like this, we haven't 
tested too much samba is a large number of records and given the current 
architecture I'm not too surprised.
Is the container 
DC=test.local,CN=MicrosoftDNS,CN=System,dc=test,dc=local dc=master 
really present on your system ?
If so it means that you upgraded from a Windows where the database is 
still stored in the legacy container.


Are you ok to migrate to the DNS partitions ?
