I'd very much appreciate that since I'm the opposite of a C wizard.

Note that with my test script you can specify any search by LDAP URL which 
includes specifying certain attributes to read (see RFC2255).

python perf_test.py "ldap://localhost:1390/dc=stroeder,dc=de?cn?sub"

only retrieves attribute 'cn' of all search results.

It also supports the bindname and X-BINDPW LDAP URL extensions:

python perf_test.py 
"ldap://localhost:1390/dc=stroeder,dc=de?cn?sub?(objectClass=person)?bindname=cn=manager,X-BINDPW=secret"

binds with cn=manager and password 'secret'.
