Feature Request: Allow separate location of dn2id and id2entry (ITS#3377)
Hi Howard:
Thank you for your reply
I submit this issue because we need a great performance LDAP server,
so we care about it very much. I know I can use the symbol link, but I
think it will slower than access that database directly, right?
If I can configure it to separate disk, we can use two scsi card to
drive two diskes, I think it can promote performance than place them
in same card and disk.
If you think that feature is useless, I still have a question.
Can I the define the bdb databases' page size when I create them?
Best regard
Zhao Xin
