Hi Thorsten,
I do not know eDirectory that good.
But in Active Directory you will also find the configuration partition
underneath dc=contoso,dc=com, where you might habe no read access!
Maybe this slows some things down?
Do you also get slow results when using another search base like
   ou=myOrga,dc=contoso,dc=com ?

Kind regards
Cornelius
