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 ?

Seems about the same with as without for a simple slapadd, but i'd expect that wins would be more around a highly loaded server, not the initial load process?

(investigations continue however, server loading is next)

Cheers Brett

The only authenticated binds to our directory service that we support are GSSAPI binds. On Linux, Cyrus SASL/malloc leak memory bad enough that without either hoard or tcmalloc OpenLDAP is unusable.
