Issue ID: 9270
           Summary: Admin guide: Add detailed information on indexing
           Product: OpenLDAP
           Version: 2.5
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: ---
         Component: documentation
          Assignee: bugs@openldap.org
          Reporter: quanah@openldap.org
  Target Milestone: ---
It would be useful to outline what the different types of indexing options do,
and when they are useful, in the admin guide.
For example:
presence indexing is only useful if looking to find entries with a given
attribute, when generally < 50% of the entries in the DB have an instance of
that attribute.
equality indexing would not be particularly useful on an attribute that exists
in most every entry, and the attribute always has the same value
etc.
