Description

After having profiled the server, I found that the LdapDN<init>(Name) has been called 3000 times, because the LdapPrincipal contains a Name instead of a LdapDN element.

We should check that the passed Name is not an instance of LdapDN before calling new LdapDN( Name) in
org.apache.directory.server.core.authz.DefaultAuthorizationService.protectLookUp() method
 :
...
LdapDN principalDn = new LdapDN( ( ( ServerContext ) ctx ).getPrincipal().getJndiName() );
...

could be :
Name name = ( ( ServerContext ) ctx ).getPrincipal().getJndiName() ;

LdapDN principalDn= ( name instanceof LdapDN ? name.clone() : new LdapDN( name ) );
