A simple socket program which establishes TCP connections to slapd without
sending subsequent LDAP requests will work for the experiment with a

Even though this patch only aims at responsive and resilient improvement,
I think it is an important issue as you can see in the following link.
http://www.openldap.org/lists/openldap-software/200505/msg00206.html
This patch may relieve the problem posted in the link.

BTW, I'm also looking into throughput improvement. So I hope a throughput 
improvement patch
is provided soon.
