That depends entirely on the speed of your server and network.
Taking the server part first - I'm also doubt that my provider server is underpowered.
Following are the ldap specific parameters on our provider server :
entries : 0.5 million avg entry size : 1k to 4k cachesize : 0.5 million dncachesize : 0.5 million database type : bdb bdb cachesize : 3 gb ldap threads : 16
Foll is hardware configuration of the provider server : ram : 8gb swap : 8gb cpu : Virtual machine with 4 cpus. (vmware vsphere) architecture : 64 bit
Also we have some administrative services/tasks running on the provider server other than openldap. But the sar output seems normal i.e iowait below 10 and idle time above 50.
Does the hardware configuration seem ok for the given ldap size and configuration ?
If not, can u suggest some changes?
You don't provide any useful information for suggesting changes. I would advise you read over http://wiki.zimbra.com/wiki/OpenLDAP_Performance_Tuning
