On a system where slapd is the top CPU process and is consuming 4% of the CPU simple queries are taking ten of seconds to complete. Here is an example query:

Last time we saw this it appeared that it might be related to DNS. How long does a netstat -a take on the affected systems when the LDAP queries are slow?

I don't have that number. I have only see it once in the test environment I am not sure how long it will take me to get it. Since this plastered the production service today, I will have to reproduce it though before we attempt another production upgrade.

Not clear to me why a DNS issue would appear only under load and not at other times. And it seems strange that it appears in lenny/openldap-2.4 and not in etch/openldap-2.3.
