we're running an LDAP system with +600K user entries used for authentication and mail routing. we ran it with OpenLDAP 1.2.x for some years and switched to 2.0.21 two weeks ago. we got 4 dual 1000mhz PIII machines with 1gb ram running linux and OpenLDAP 2.0.21. one serves as master, the other three are slaves. search requests are loadshared on all 4 machines by a radware wsd. slapd's cpu usage stays below 1%, memory usage is about 3%. if you ask me again in a few weeks, i can tell you whether the new setup is as reliable as i expect it to be ;-) tom.
