I don't have concerns about performance or answering/responding, as the cluster is load balanced. I will not have the newly built instances available in the load balanced pool while the data is being updated on it.
It's not that I want a full sync, but that i have to have one. The dataset will be blank upon rebuild and the newly built instance will have no data to provide when queried.
I'd suggest making it part of the spinup process to import an ldif. In my environment, I have a system specifically for backups that hourly stops slapd, exports via slapcat, and stores the ldif in a location accessible to all servers. On new server spinup, the most recent backup can be imported and then the system started, so replication has only a small window it needs to sync.
