[Freeipa-users] FreeIPA Replica Manage Reinitialize causes ALL Severs to rerun memberof fixup

I have a multimaster infrastructure with 3 core FreeIPA servers and 10 supporting (procedurally read-only) FreeIPA servers.
I notice that occasionally 1 of the systems starts producing errors filling up /var/log/dirsrv/slapd-DOMAIN-COM/errors:
Replica has a different generation ID than the local data
(I suspect this is due to ntp problems that I am trying to work out)
http://www.centos.org/docs/5/html/CDS/ag/8.0/Managing_Replication-Troubleshooting_Replication_Related_Problems.html
^ This document suggests that I should re-initialize the problematic system from one of the core master servers.
Upon so doing, I am finding that all 13 servers CPU's spike to 100% of 1 core while they re-process memberof data... Even though there are many many cores in these systems the intense & single threaded nature of this process causes a performance hit in all 13 data centers for all clients.
Am I reading the documentation wrong? Shouldn't a re-initialization of the problematic host only cause a replication: master -> slave + slave memberof fixup?
This seems like a fairly severe performance effecting bug.
