Sensitivity:
First, the client and server are identical - in this case.
Actually I checked "top" already and there was NO significant cpu usage (all
less than 1%) during
the command processing.

The "dbnosync" parameter didn't change a thing.

Thema: RE: Antwort: RE: password change takes 20 seconds

The client's response time is entirely dependent on the server.
Perhaps an strace on the server in both single-CPU and dual-CPU modes
would show something interesting.

I have no idea how Linux was ported to VM, and how closely integrated
it is with the Supervisor. Since adding a second CPU fixes the problem,
it implies a scheduling problem in either the Linux kernel or its
interface to VM. Still the slapd logs you sent just show very very slow
database operations. Perhaps your VM partition just doesn't have enough
I/O resources allocated to it.

Try running "top" on the server while it's executing this operation, and
see how much CPU time is spent in user mode or system mode. I would guess
that the majority is in system mode, and you're just stuck waiting for
the underlying system to service your I/Os. Another thing to try is to
add "dbnosync" to your slapd.conf and see if it runs any faster. If so,
the problem is definitely in the underlying I/O.
