I can confirm this,. I've a samba domain with 5 DCs (bind9 dns, not
internal); if one or more DCs goes down, after some amount of time all
domain start to behave badly; i've some scripts that do some LDAP query and
in this situation simply became slooooowww... we are spaking of some seconds
to some hours.

I've a site with a DC that have a particulary bad connectivity; i've setup
in the firewall a rule that simply drop connection to the unreachable DC,
and i enable that when needed.
