The reason I like handling the problem in tpool is that tpools is fairly isolated, no worries about which bconfig parts are safe from each other. But by all means attack the problem in bconfig too:-)

I've pushed a better version to git://git.uio.no/u/hbf/openldap.git branch "its8958-re24-task-speeds-v2". And I see how to port this to master after all, if anyone wants this included in OpenLDAP. RE24 tpool is simpler when discusissing the basics, though.
