Hi,
it is kopano. They state on their website¹:
-----------------
Note
Please note that due to performance problems in Samba 4, Samba 4 is not
supported as a user source for setups larger than 50 users.
-----------------
And that is indeed what i notice. The high amount of kerberos-requests
between samba-DC and kopano server is causing a very high io-load on the
samba system - renders the system unstable. Also the time an
authentication request takes, is between 200-400ms.
As Kopano is doing an authentication every time a user clicks a single
mail and no caching is possible, it is hitting the samba system too hard.
