A reasonable fix that has worked for Me so far it to modify /etc/ldap.conf add `bind_policy soft' to the end of the file.
after adding that line, the system no longer goes into long delay loops while booting, and I am still able to use all functionality.
My question, to add to this bug, is, Why does this relatively minor policy change seem to fix it for Me??
It's not a minor change: # Reconnect policy: hard (default) will retry connecting to # the software with exponential backoff, soft will fail # immediately.
To some extent it comes down to whether LDAP is critical or not.
