Does the attached patch make it faster? And, how much faster?

(i.e. is it slow because the LDAP calls are slow, or because the shell
is much slower than awk?)

Title:
  X01-localapps pathologically slow with many groups

Status in Linux Terminal Server Project:
  New
Status in “ltsp” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “ltsp” package in Debian:
  New

Bug description:
  With non-trivial numbers of users/groups (e.g. when the server LDAP
  authenticates), X01-localapps takes many, many minutes to return,
  blocking the session from starting.

  The attached patch rewrites the portion of the shell script that does
  the group deduplication in awk.
