stop slapd, run sbin/slapindex, restart slapd, and tell us if that
helped.

Needed if you add the index to slapd.conf when you alreayd have a
database, since just editing slapd.conf does not index existing data.

Substring, not a regular expression.

By default, a substring search with just a single letter does not use
indexes, it just trawls through each entry in scope.
