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 ?

Yes, tcmalloc is great.

Old news...

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?

slapadd re-uses most of its memory, and therefore doesn't make excessive calls to malloc.

(investigations continue however, server loading is next)
