Dear Experts,

Today we tried with to run the load with the below schema. We added about .6M entries in the DB.
Still our performance is severely poor. (10 TPS)

Can anybody review our slapd.conf file and point us where we are wrong, is there any other config we have missed out.

System we have is 64 bit 12 core machine RHEL having total memory of 49418952 kB.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
dn: dc=example,dc=com
objectClass: dcObject
objectClass: organization
o: Example Company
dc: example

dn: cn=Manager0,dc=example,dc=com
objectClass: organizationalRole
cn: Manager0
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Not at this point. There are several approaches to test; most of them will
probably be dead ends.
