Lots of FAQ and list archive on this.  A syncrepl slave won't allow
writes, so that's out of the picture.  

If you really need to load balance OpenLDAP 2.3, I submit that something
is wrong with what you're doing with the directory -- on decent
hardware, you could easily serve tens of thousands of requests/sec.

If all you're really trying to accomplish is HA, there are valid ways of
doing it.
