Ok, how does this stack up as a rough test of OL capabilities?

    ypcat passwd | awk -F: '{print $1}' | \
    ldapsearch -H ldap://$host -x -f - uid=%s > /dev/null

Running this test gives me similar results to the DB dump: sol10 is about 3x 
faster. I'm getting about 4K records/s on sol10 and 1.3K r/s on Linux.

Interestingly enough, though, when searching for just on attribute, the
linux queries come out on top, about 10K r/s vs 8K r/s on sol10.
