When OpenLDAP is built on a system with epoll instead of select, it loses the ability to properly clean up those connections, as for epoll this is a separate event.
slapd needs to be fixed to handle this case when epoll is used. It's fairly trivial to trigger it, simply write a script that does lots of searches and closes the connection without unbinding. This will cause slapd to eventually hang and stop accepting connections for a few seconds.
