Re: (ITS#7566) ldapadd slower on Linux than BSD

Hi Quanah,
I have started doing tests with Gentoo Linux running openldap 2.4.35, glibc
2.16 and linux kernel 3.4, 3.8 and 3.9-rc5. I have tried ext2, ext4,
reiserfs and jfs. Ldapadd is still very slow compared to BSD regardless of
the openldap backend.
Also a correction to the initial report: using a memory based file system,
ldapadd the whole database took 22 min.
