This release showed amazing promise in the past as the first release to move to after 4.2 that showed real performance gains across the board. Curious to see if the official release will hold up.

Are you going to do some nice benchmarks? ;-)

I'd like to. In true sleepycat fashion, they changed the API before the official release, which means someone (guessing Howard) needs to see what has changed to make it so that OpenLDAP works with it.

I've now got it installed and compiling 2.3.37 against it. I'll report back what works and what breaks ;-)

Yes, it seems that they at least changed something in the DBC structure. The "locker" attribute is now of the type DB_LOCKER (a new structure) instead of an u_int32_t as it was in older revisions.
which means someone (guessing Howard) needs to see what has changed to make it so that OpenLDAP works with it.

Probably should use RE23 instead. And I suspect we will not release support for it until 2.4 anyway.

This is a problem for the Windows version. I wonder why they changed it.

Seems to be only regarding Windows 9X (which should be 95, 98 ans ME). Those can be savely ignored nowadays, I guess ;).

Ah, good point. Missed that...

Yeah, this will be a bit of a pain, since slapadd relied on being able to get the locker ID out of the cursor structure, and several places relied on being able to explicitly set the locker ID in the cursor. Very annoying; they should have just completely done away with the integer locker IDs and just used the DB_LOCKER pointers everywhere. As it is now, we still need the integers for the public lock APIs but they're all converted to pointers in the internal APIs anyway...
which means someone (guessing Howard) needs to see what has changed to make it so that OpenLDAP works with it.

I've now got it installed and compiling 2.3.37 against it. I'll report back what works and what breaks ;-)
Ah, I'd already done that. It broke immediately in test001. ;)
