Which exact version of OpenLDAP and which database backend are you
using? The BDB backend has severe problems if incorrectly configured
(i.e. a DB_CONFIG file is missing or the cachesize specified there is
too small). We're working on that at the moment; libdb4.2 4.2.51 is
supposed to fix the problem, though a correctly cachesize is still
important for performance.
