It is possible to set a maximum time limit when searching and awaiting a result.
Set `hadoop.security.group.mapping.ldap.directory.search.timeout` to 0 if infinite wait period is desired. Default is 10,000 milliseconds (10 seconds).
This is the limit for each ldap query. If `hadoop.security.group.mapping.ldap.search.group.hierarchy.levels` is set to a positive value, then the total latency will be bounded by max(Recur Depth in LDAP, `hadoop.security.group.mapping.ldap.search.group.hierarchy.levels` ) * `hadoop.security.group.mapping.ldap.directory.search.timeout`.
The implementation does not attempt to resolve group hierarchies. Therefore, a user must be an explicit member of a group object
in order to be considered a member.
`hadoop.security.group.mapping.ldap.base` configures how far to walk up the groups hierarchy when resolving groups.
By default, with a limit of 0, in order to be considered a member of a group, the user must be an explicit member in LDAP. Otherwise, it will traverse the group hierarchy `hadoop.security.group.mapping.ldap.search.group.hierarchy.levels` levels up.
