Tim could you take a network trace while performing the initgroups operations ? I'd like to asses if there is a problem with network operations.
Simo.

Just thought I'd contribute my results in case this helps with your investigation of the larger problem. I assume there are other organisations with huge AD/LDAP directories that are having similar issues with ssh authentication times.
Out of interest, what performance do you get in those two cases if you symlink cache_default.ldb to /dev/shm/cache_default.ldb?
I've re-run my tests, with and without the symlink to /dev/shm:
No symlink: Time Size of cache.ldb With ldap_rfc2307bis_initgroup_filter 6.43s 7553024 WithOUT ldap_rfc2307bis_initgroup_filter 43.95s 15974400
With symlink: Time Size of cache.ldb With ldap_rfc2307bis_initgroup_filter 4.86s 7528448 WithOUT ldap_rfc2307bis_initgroup_filter 26.82s 15962112
So the symlink does provide some improvement. But 26 seconds is still not acceptable for an ssh login time.
This is with sssd v1.5.15 BTW.
