Hi Karl,

FreeIPA itself should only deliver bash completion in
/etc/bash_completion.d/ipa
around "ipa" command itself, you can try to remove it temporarily to see if
this is the reason.

It all depends when the bash completion freezes. Maybe some bash completion
plugin tries to enumerate users or groups which takes time? We need to see at
what command and on which parameter does this happen to provide advise.
