I set up my accesslog to do the purges every 4 hours by default, rather than once a day, to get around this. You may want to do it more frequently than that. I would say once a day clearly isn't often enough for the amount of write traffic you have.
I wasn't sure if doing it more frequently would amortize the load to the point where it did not impact production, or simply break production more often :). I guess I'll have to give it a try and see.
You also don't note what slapd backend you're using (bdb, hdb, mdb). bdb & hdb in particular are much slower, write wise, than mdb. And you don't note your OpenLDAP version, either...
Sorry, we are running the latest and greatest 2.4.41 with the latest and greatest mdb backend :).
Thanks…
