Yes. I wrote that when posting the code snippet.

Leif's version sets non-zero timeout. Therefore it's faster since 
OpenLDAP's ldap_result() can use select() to determine 
just-in-time when data is ready to be read. But it blocks which is 
a bad thing because of ldap._ldap_lock serializing *all* calls...

Just adding the time.sleep() hands over the CPU to the OS. Off 
course the while-loop is not just-in-time there if received data 
is ready.

Again, the problem is that the OpenLDAP libs are not thread-safe...

Ciao, Michael.
