I'm testing performance in importing big LDIF file with 2
milions of
entries (22.000.000 number of attributes). LDIF file is 600 MB big, one
entry looks like this:
In my case, it takes about 20!!! hours to load the entire LDIF
contents. Is
this normal? Did anybody has experiences with loading of such amount of
data?
Am i perhaps having wrong settings in config file? Can you please someone
tell me, how much time is normaly needed for slapadd?
Unless I'm mistaken you've only set aside ~20m for the bdb cache. Adding
another zero might speed things up.
After some tips here, I recently slapadded a directory of about 4 million
entries (LDIF of 2.9GB) in much less than that, using -q. Didn't time or
monitor it closely, but less than a working day for sure.
