#330 Enumerate=true should be the default
Closed: Fixed None Opened 14 years ago by sgallagh.

In almost all cases, enumerate=true is actually more efficient than enumerate=false (in defiance of expectation) because we handle expiration of entries much more gracefully when enumeration is enabled.

Furthermore, it provides more expected results for a 'getent passwd' (all users are listed).

Simo and I have agreed that the benefits provided by enumerate=true are undeniably worth making it the default.

I've spoken with Stephen about this, and the cause of enumerate=true being more efficient (or perhaps more correctly, the cause of enumerate=false being very inefficient) was discovered. The default value is now false, and the docs reflect this and other behaviors associated with using enumeration.
