That's right, but slapi-nis never supported paged search results before
and I'm not sure we want it to do that with the current code as it is
not trivial at all.

You may file a bug about paged results but I suspect it will start
working with the refactoring of slapi-nis we plan for global catalog
support in FreeIPA 4.5/4.6 where we'll move content of the slapi-nis
virtual memory cache to a proper database backend in a separate 389-ds
instance.
