Re: LDAP performance slow intermittently

My LDAP server (version 2.3.43) performance is quite erratic; for a few minutes, search operations are lightning fast, and then it slows down to several seconds for a single search, and then it is fast again, etc.

I am not sure how to troubleshoot/determine the root cause of this intermittent problem. Any suggestions are appreciated.

It is hard to tell, but from my experience there are four or five main reasons: - insufficient memory, - inadequate file system, - lack of appropriate indexes, - transaction logs, database and syslog on the same disk, - network failures, - misconfigured clients.
