The MVCC approach has also proved its value, with no bottlenecks for readers and response time essentially flat as number of CPUs scales up.
slamd results have been interesting. The same set of clients that easily push back-hdb up to 62,000 searches/second at 1485% CPU use are gasping and dying, pushing back-mdb over 75,000 searches/second at only 1000% CPU use. Once again I need to bring some more load generator machines online in order to actually max out slapd.
There are still problem areas that need work, but it looks like we're on the right track, and what started out as possibly-a-good-idea is delivering on the promise.
