Hi David,

The first thing this makes me wonder about is whether there's a 
performance issue that we may need to fix.  How long did it take to add 
the composite group using GSH?   Since this would end up adding 40K+ 
membership records in the database and another 40K+ records in the temp 
change log, this definitely wouldn't be a quick operation.

In any case, I suppose we can have an option in the admin UI to first 
check the number of composite memberships that would end up being 
created and inform the user if that exceeds some configured amount.  
Would that help?

Thanks!
