#1893 Enabling enumeration causes sssd_be process to utilize 100% of the CPU
Closed: Fixed None Opened 11 years ago by jhrozek.

Ticket was cloned from Red Hat Bugzilla (product Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6): Bug 953165

Please note that this Bug is private and may not be accessible as it contains confidential Red Hat customer information.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Enable enumeration in sssd ldap domain with a significant amount of accounts
2. Fire off a `getent passwd` or something that hits nss and causes enumeration
2. Watch CPU spike to 100%

Actual results:
CPU spikes to 100%

Expected results:
CPU usage ~2%

Additional info:

Are we seeing some sort of regression? Looks like this amount of CPU usage is
excessive when compared to previous versions of sssd.

Lukas was triaging the bug and traced the regression down to commit e4fb78b

We'll need to release this fix in the maintenance branch, too. Moving to 1.9.6

changelog: => Due to a logic bug in the LDAP provider, the SSSD was performing an unnecessary search when saving enumerated entries. This could have caused a CPU spike in large environments.
