The way you construct your filter will have a large impact on how
fast the search is conducted. If you create a filter involving
structures that the directory server can not evaluate efficiently,
performance is likely to suffer. Apart from being familiar with the
administrator and/or the inner workings of the server itself, only
trial and error can tell you whether your filter is working
efficiently or not.
