run slapd in debugging mode, although debugging will decrease
performance.

You don't say much about OpenLDAP version, nor about your operating
system nor about database definition and memory settings, so it is
hard to give any comments .
In priciple, that is depending on your hardware and client
configuration, OpenLDAP is able to handle ~1000 connections/sec and
answer those requests in decent time.
