Probably a back end problem, not Freeradius.

Do you get the same lag using a command line ldap search?

Could be chasing referrals. Try the GC port 3268 (3269 for ssl). Not all attributes are available in the Global Catalog unless specified in the schema. They can be exposed by one of your AD admins if needed.

Also make sure all the attributes in your search strings are indexed. If they aren't search returns can be slow in a large directory.
