[Samba] Samba 4.7.1 - ldap multi process - excessive processes

Hi,

with the change in Samba 4.7 that ldap is now running multiple processes 
I'm having resource constraint issues.

Before it was fine to run any number of clients against samba, but now 
the ldap clients are limited.

My server quickly ran out of memory!

1) Is there any solution exept adding more RAM?
2) One process should be able to handle more than 1 connection! This is 
an archaic server side model ....

Actually the same issue also happens with the RPC Server which under 
certain conditions was started up to 50 000 times on 4.5 (not sure that 
is fixed).

BR
Thomas
