Do you have test-cases and benchmarks?

From what I can see, most Ruby users are using Net::LDAP to authenticate
users, and most of those are binding against Active Directory. Relatively
few people are doing bulk-queries where performance problems would be
readily apparent. I have made some performance-improvements to Net::LDAP
recently but didn't get too aggressive about it because the use-cases don't
justify it. But again, tell me more about what you're trying to do.
