You can also use slapd-* from tests/progs to generate load. In my case, I 
wasn't that interested in the time taken to complete a search, but rather the 
number of searches, so I monitored performance via back-monitor.

Shouldn't your size limit for unauthenticated searches be lower?

Why are openldap and ldap2 so slow? Does the hardware differ so much? Or is it 
tuning (index, DB_CONFIG. limits)?
