Quanah,

That's is exactly the point. My system is a 32 bits and with 64 bits if there are enough physical memory available even slapd cache grows without never release it will be difficult(or very long) to cache enough entrances before system consumes all memory.

With the 32 bits 3GB maximum, depend on OS too, this issue appears more often. My impression is if you ldapsearch all DB in a 32 bits HW/OS slapd will consume all possible memory unless to keep boundaries for its cache(erase and overwrite).

As I noted, in 2.3, you cannot constrain the DN cachesize. You can do this with OL 2.4. You need to try a current RE2.4 release, and set the dncachesize. There was no dn cache at all in OL 2.1.
