To enable shared memmory I just do this?

In DB_CONFIG: set_shm_key 1


No.


And
Put the slapd conf: olcDbShmKey to 1


No.
Read the slapd-bdb(5) manpage.


And rebuild the bdb database in /var/lib/ldap/


You don't need to rebuild the database. Just run db_recover on the database.


I have a default (centos6) DB_CONFIG setup.

set_cachesize 0 268435456 1
set_lg_regionmax 262144
set_lg_bsize 2097152
I think if you had mounted the DB's filesystem with noatime or relatime that would also have removed the problem.
