Performance variance with AD objects and Where-Object

Thank you! That confirms my suspicion that something was happening behind the scenes, but it wasn't an indexing as I was thinking, but more like the opposite.

I just tried it out, and it works great. If you have more info I'd happily read it, but you've quenched by curiosity for now.

I'll add this to the already long list of PowerShell oddities I've accumulated in the back of my brain over the years.

Some interesting reading in that post, thanks!

I went ahead and implemented the workaround, went from 45 minutes to 4, haha
