Hi,
I do administer a system which hosts a slapd instance (2.4.36) which is used
by one of our customer which use a tree with tens of thousand of aliases.
The backend is HDB.
If I do a search with alias dereferencing set to always using
"ou=1004,ou=studenti,o=uni,dc=uni,dc=it" as a base I do find the record I'm
looking for.
vm:~# time ldapsearch -x -H ldap://localhost:8501 -D 'cn=manager,dc=uni,dc=it'
-W -b ou=1004,ou=studenti,o=uni,dc=uni,dc=it uid=mario.rossi -a always | grep
\#

# extended LDIF

# LDAPv3
# base <ou=1004,ou=studenti,o=uni,dc=uni,dc=it> with scope subtree
# filter: uid=mario.rossi
# requesting: ALL
#
# mario.rossi, m, utenti, uni, uni.it
# search result
# numResponses: 2
# numEntries: 1
real 0m1.607s

If I do the same search on the parent of the previously used base
("ou=studenti,o=uni,dc=uni,dc=it" vs "ou=1004,ou=studenti,o=uni,dc=uni,dc=it") I
do not get any record and no errors are logged.
