[keycloak-user] Keycloak goes to AD to fetch users every page load, does not use local store.

[Bill Burke]

Again, are you just talking about the Admin Console?  Please list 
exactly what actions load thousands of users.

* IN the admin console Users page, if you search for a user, LDAP will 
be queried once by username, email, or first+last name depending on the 
format of the search string.

* View All Users will *NOT* query LDAP.  It will only show imported 
users aka users that have already be imported from LDAP.

I'm not sure about the new Authorization stuff.  Is this what you mean 
by the Evaluation screen or in the User base Policy?
