Re: HELP: Continuing Openldap Database Corruption!

[Lee <lee_hoffman@brown.edu>]

That is an excellent explanation. Since this is so easily calculated, 
why not include this either:

a) As part of the openldap daemon, such that if db type = bdb, on 
startup openldap runs db_stat -m, calculates teh appropriate values, 
checks that a the system has mem*2 or something, and generates a 
DB_CONFIG. This could even be a options in slapd.conf (i.e. 
AUTOTUNE_BDB = 1)

b) As an included shell script (i.e. openldap_bdb_tune)?

Thank you for all the help.

I have the cache set to 15MB. Besides using 15MB of memory, is there 
any down side to it being this big (i.e. if the cache is huge does 
performance degrade b/c it takes longer to search the entire cache)?
