OK. Perhaps you should file an ITS on this matter. On an idle system 
there should be only two lockers per thread, plus 2 or 3 per open 
database handle. On an active system the number will increase but it 
should be freeing them as the operations complete.

You should also include your BDB configuration from slapd.conf, any 
DB_CONFIG file settings, and also the output of db_stat -CA in your bug 
report.
