If this startup timer does not affect subsequent calls to the same facilities,
and only in effect during initial startup, it can be anything. 300 or 500ms,
not really relevant. I see how you can be a member of 200 groups, and I really
don't see it as bad thing, other than certain administrative tasks may be
slow, but in more common scenario we can expect lower number of groups and
faster response times in general.

I should, like, REALLY get myself together to migrate to samba4 already >.<
