If you haven't already, you may want to consider this doc: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B28196_01/idmanage.1014/b15991/server.htm#i1053850

We found that while dynamic discovery worked well in the lab, when first tried in production it was very slow. This may lead to timeouts.

The problem was found to be that a nanosleep call from from 1-5 seconds was being inserted into every call. This is caused by Oracle receiving an error from DNS.

The cause of the error was that DNS was look for an LDAPS record in addition to the LDAP record. Create the LDAPS record fixed the problem.
