I suggest reading up on the "-t" flag for slurpd, and I think you may want 
to change the name and/or location of the slapd replog file.

The way slurpd works is:

Read the replog file created by slapd
Copy that file to the replog location for slurpd
Play the changes

The error message you are seeing would indicate to me that the replog file 
for slapd and the replog file for slurpd are currently the same location, 
meaning slurpd is constantly clobbering itself, and is why you are seeing 
such a problem with the IO bits.
