Hello,

I was wondering of anybody has used much of tcmalloc (from google performance tools) and has any opinion they care to share with regards to performance of berkeleydb/openldap toolset ?

I included tcmalloc into my build system. While I didn't measure a large gain in performance, memory allocation is much cleaner now. There are some side efects though, if SASL library is not recompiled with tcmalloc, but this can be solved by not building openldap with -ltcmalloc but load libtcmalloc by an ld_preload environment variable.
