[Phpgroupware-developers] ldap large address book

[Bobby Castleberry]

first i would like to say that this is a wonderful project and all that are 
working
on it are doing a great job, thank you

now for the question, i have an ldap global address book which i moved over from
outlook of one of the users using a palm (because of ms's sick export 
practices) so
now i have a 600 person address book (200 of which are probably bogus entries), 
when
a user hits the address book it takes forever to load (at least thats what they 
say,
i guess forever is 20 seconds), so does phpgw pull the entire address book from 
the
ldap server and then just shave off the ten it needs? is there anyway to make 
the
query such that it only pulls the proper amount (per the setting by screen) off 
the
ldap server or is that to complicated a process?  any help or comments would be
appreciated thank you
