If you take the advice of others on this list, to specifically read man 
slapd-bdb, you will see:

    cachesize <integer>
         Specify the size in  entries  of  the  in-memory  cache
         maintained  by  the BDB backend database instance.  The
         default is 1000 entries.


Note that it says "BDB" and not "LDBM"
