That's pretty much the reason why syncrepl was invented/implemented in OpenLDAP 2.2 and slurpd is deprecated and abandoned from 2.4.

Likely everybody here will simply recommend to migrate to syncrepl.

Thanks for the suggestion. I agree with the design and goals of syncrepl, and will indeed migrate in the future. However, having tried it, it didn't seem production-worthy in openldap 2.3.

Just in case it can help anyone, I solved my problem by removing the attribute filtering from my replica. No blank lines since.
