Will it then initially perform a full syncrepl replication to load itself and then switch to using logfilter=, or does it always use logfilter= ?
If the ldap replica has no data, it falls back and does a full update from the master server, just like with normal syncrepl. If the replica's CSN is so old that it no longer appears in the changes found in the accesslog, it falls back and does a full update from the master server.
In other words, if I have the provider slapd purge its accesslog database every twenty days, and a consumer is powered up on the thirtieth day, what will it miss?
Nothing. It will just do a full resync from the master. :) Although at that point it is probably faster to just reload the replica via slapadd.
