We do that all the time... 

Pretty please ;) How do you do that? Latest allowable Openldap version
2.1.22. And not using ACIs.

I stop the server and then I start it. No need to reload the database. ;) Unless by "reload database" that is what he means, which is vastly different than what I mean when I talk about reloading my database...

Also, if I'm able to set up groups (which in many cases I am), I simply add members to the group in the OpenLDAP DB, which gives immediate access to the new members, without any restart required.
