Re: slapadd going for a very long time



Hi,

Thanks for the reply.

Using BDB backend

My DB_CONFIG:

set_verbose DB_VERB_DEADLOCK
set_verbose DB_VERB_RECOVERY
set_verbose DB_VERB_WAITSFOR
set_verbose DB_VERB_CHKPOINT
set_cachesize 0 536870912 0
set_lg_bsize 1048576
set_lg_regionmax 262144
set_lg_dir log
set_lk_detect DB_LOCK_RANDOM
#set_flags DB_TXN_NOSYNC

I'll try uncommenting the DB_TXN_NOSYNC line and see if it speeds up at all.

Thanks

M
