I am doing some basic testing with ldap with this command.
ldclt \ -a 400 \ -H ldap://x.x.x.x:xxxx \ -e bindeach,bindonly,close \ -D "uid=test,dc=me,dc=local" \ -w yyyyyy \ -n 1
I was testing this on two container test environments. Both are running with ~500MB, 1 core.
- alpine - slapd 2.6.3, mdb still with default slapd.conf
ldclt[5594]: Average rate: 12627.00/thr (1262.70/sec), total: 12627 ldclt[5594]: Average rate: 0.00/thr ( 0.00/sec), total: 0 ldclt[5594]: All threads are dead - exit.
- alpine - slapd 2.6.6, mdb configured with acl's, ssl, modules etc.
ldclt[8900]: Average rate: 1495.00/thr ( 149.50/sec), total: 1495 ldclt[8900]: Average rate: 1498.00/thr ( 149.80/sec), total: 1498 ldclt[8900]: Average rate: 1490.00/thr ( 149.00/sec), total: 1490
What should I be expecting from this? It looks like maybe slapd of 1.
is
not 100% with this 'threads are dead' messages. While slapd of 2. with 150 req/sec is that to be expected normal?
Doing a search on self gives me values that I would expect more (2 being faster than 1)
-e esearch \ -f '(&(objectClass=xxxx)(cn=test))' \ -D "cn=test,dc=me,dc=local" \ -b "cn=test,dc=me,dc=local" \

Any ideas why these binds on 2. could be so slow?
Binds are always going to be slower than other operations since they involve things such as TLS (if used), DNS, and other items. Well written LDAP clients bind, and then use a persistent connection to do their operations.
I just searched a bit and did some requests on https files and it looks like most are reporting results between 100 - 200. So I guess this is sort of ok.
