I've mentioned before that yanking up 'threads' in slapd.conf did help at our site some years ago. Fewer requests took abnormally long time that way. (Possibly more threads degraded the _average_ response time, but that was fast enough anyway.) Some server stats, maybe we were half as big/active then: 60-90 new connections and 300-500 requests per second. (Just samples just now and a few other times). Can exceed 6000 concurrent connections. 340000 entries. 5 bdb databases, though we used ldbm back then. -- Hallvard
