Has anyone done any performance tests on OpenLDAP on SMP and/or hyper-threading machines?
I'm about to setup some OpenLDAP servers, they will have 2 * 1.8GHz P4 Xeon CPUs with hyper-threading (4 virtual CPUs) and 4G of RAM. Between 3.5G of cache and a fast hardware RAID setup I expect that the CPU will be the bottleneck (current servers with 1G of RAM and much slower hard drives are CPU bottlenecked), so I want to take maximum advantage of all four virtual CPUs. I plan to use IPVS for load balancing between servers for best performance and reliability. So if I have to run two instances of OpenLDAP with the same data to get the best performance out of the two physical CPUs then that's not a problem, IPVS can deal with that just as well as it can deal with multiple machines. -- http://www.coker.com.au/selinux/ My NSA Security Enhanced Linux packages http://www.coker.com.au/bonnie++/ Bonnie++ hard drive benchmark http://www.coker.com.au/postal/ Postal SMTP/POP benchmark http://www.coker.com.au/~russell/ My home page -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
