in order to be able to use IPA auth for Samba shares, I followed this

IPA and Samba are running on the same server, everything worked fine.
Actually, it still does, but since the upgrade from 7.4 to 7.5
(including IPA 4.5.0->4.5.4, Samba 4.6.2->4.7.1 and sssd-1.15.2->1.60.0)
file browsing and copying is painfully slow on Mac, Windows and Linux
(<10% of the theoretical maximum). It "feels" as whether there is a
timeout after each file operation.
Nothing in the server logs. Client logs on Linux occasionally show a
"CIFS VFS: ioctl error in smb2_get_dfs_refer rc=-2". Reverting Samba
back to non-IPA auth (dedicated Samba accounts) gives expected
performance (near theoretical maximum).
I'm out of ideas on how to diagnose this. Any hints?
for the record: I found the problem. Samba performance issues were caused
by outdated sssd cache entries.

rm -f /var/lib/sss/db/*

solved the issues instantly. I'd probably better used the sss_cache
utility, as I learned afterwards.
