ls -n is faster than ls -l
but we dont have ldap configured.

It was a problem of ownership .When i tried executing ls -n it resulted in faster responce .
-n option make sure that only uid and gid are displayed.

So i figured out that one of the folder has wrong ownership.
I changed the ownership of the folder and the problem is solved.
