This really says nothing about how the system performs as an LDAP
server.  This simply shows that Solaris 10 x86 completes a single LDAP
search  faster.  Since LDAP servers by nature process and return results
on many  connections at once, it is much more valuable to have the
results from that  type of test.

I understand that, I'm using the test to get a rough idea.

Hi James,

Please try the following on your linux system(s):

unpack, then run configure.

After configure completes:
cd include/
vi portable.h

replace:
#define REPLACE_BROKEN_YIELD 1

with

#undef REPLACE_BROKEN_YIELD

then proceed with the make process.

Run your ldapsearch test, and report the results. I believe this will change the behavior so that Linux performs as well as, or better than, Solaris 10 x86.

Regards,
Quanah
