I see in the code that a key (the same it seems to be) is repeatedly written, and a comment is stating that /* Don't worry if it's already there */ (line 862 in servers/slapd/back-bdb/idl.c).

Is this to be expected or have we done something wrong?

It is to be expected.

In testing we did @ Zimbra, we found it to be substantially slower to do writes in parallel than to just serialize the writes. I suggest you rework your process. ;)
