Trevor,

As I said, it is important to know what the data is.  You are not 
benchmarking OL at all, as far as I can tell.  Like I noted in another 
post, 50 million entries with 1 attribute is a lot different than 50 
million entries with a large number of attributes.

No, you have not.  It would be useful to have your entire slapd.conf file, 
as well as the DB_CONFIG file.

This answer shows that you have 0 knowledge about OpenLDAP access methods. 
I suggest you read up on things like "SASL", "anonymous binds", and "simple 
binds".

It really isn't that simple.  If you want help, which people are *trying* 
to provide, you have to give the requisite information.
