It's the stock Debian packaging for BDB 4.7, on Debian lenny.
I just got around to rebuilding with --enable-posixmutexes
--with-mutex=POSIX/pthreads; the autoconf build output differs like so:
-checking for mutexes... POSIX/pthreads/library/x86/gcc-assembly
+checking for mutexes... (cached) POSIX/pthreads
So far (slapd's only been up for 1.5h), the DN cache is stable at ~20k
entries, but the entry cache is at 17k entries (vs. configured 10k) and
expanding. It seemed to plateau at ~10k for a few minutes, but then
continued its march onward.
