Hi Quanah,
I have started doing tests with Gentoo Linux running openldap 2.4.35, glibc 2.16 and linux kernel 3.4, 3.8 and 3.9-rc5. I have tried ext2, ext4, reiserfs and jfs. Ldapadd is still very slow compared to BSD regardless of the openldap backend.
Also a correction to the initial report: using a memory based file system, ldapadd the whole database took 22 min.

If you are going to test back-mdb, then you need to use a current OpenLDAP release (2.4.35).
In any case, I don't see a bug report here? It sounds more like you're asking for tuning advice? I would ask what filesystem you are using (ext2? ext4?) etc. For ext4, I had to modify dirty_bytes to keep the Debian/Ubuntu flush process from killing load performance.
Oh, one other note -- I advise avoiding the debian/ubuntu build versions of BDB, if that is what you are using. They do not build BDB with the correct configure options, seriously impacting performance.
