Large Open LDAP Installations?

["Jeppe, Nils" <Nils.Jeppe@usd.de>]

Hello,

I am wondering how big OpenLDAP directories people are running, how well &
reliable it scales. I went back in the mailing list a couple of months and I
found very conflicting stories, so I'd appreciate a bigger data sample.

Background: I am looking into setting up an LDAP service of 100k user
entries or possibly larger to be used for authentication purposes.

Does anybody run an installation of this size? On what platform? How
reliable is it?

This might be a good topic for the openldap homepage, too. (if it's
documented somewhere, please feel free to hit me with an URL).


Best wishes,
Nils
