In my monitoring check I'd like to indicate how many entries are in a database.

Currently I'm using the no-op search control without any filtering to count the entries which is obviously a huge waste of CPU and I/O ressources for just retrieving the raw number of DB entries.

Is it easily possible to access the id2e sub-DB and query number of entries?

Ideally this should be added to cn=monitor along with olmMDBPagesMax and friends.

Ciao, Michael.
