I've used this for years on dozens of sites. Blocking user enumeration should be a standard option in Wordpress core. Until that day, this is the low-footprint plugin you need.

We as an agency use this plugin in 250+ WP installations and have made the best experience with its functionality and usability - also on this a bit larger scale. Additionally the support did react exemplary when we had a problem. Our best recommendations.
