Configurable would be OK of course.  I'm not sure when I'll get around
to testing the new snapshot, but I can certainly try how long it takes
when I do "~<TAB>" in the shell.  IIRC, mkpasswd took several minutes to
pull down the domain accounts (I've then deleted all but the handful
that was used for network shares).
