This bug is created as a clone of upstream ticket: https://fedorahosted.org/389/ticket/1 When processing large search filters which are applied to every entry in the search result set, the filter is normalized anew each time a new entry is tested. For substring filters, a regular expression must be created, compiled, and freed each time the substring filter is tested, in addition to normalizing the values. For example, if the search filter contains 1000 substring sub-filters, for each entry tested with the filter, this will require 1000 filter normalizations followed by 1000 regex creation, compilation, and cleanup. If there are 1000 entries in the search result set, this will require a million such operations.
please add steps to reproduce/verify this issue Thanks

Filter test suit is passing 100%, hence marking this bug as VERIFIED.
Technical note added. If any revisions are required, please edit the "Technical Notes" field accordingly. All revisions will be proofread by the Engineering Content Services team. New Contents: Cause: Using search filters with many substring filters and attributes that require a lot of normalization (such as DN syntax value). Consequence: Poor performance due to excessive normalization and regex compilation. Change: The code will now pre-compile and pre-normalize such search filters. Result: Better performance for search filters with many substring filters and attributes that require a lot of normalization.
