* Investigate delta-sync Unknown to me, will need to research if our current ldap software version can support it. Perhaps try it on the test-servers.
Quite frankly, in the OpenLDAP 2.3 branch, this is the only viable replication option IMHO.
Syncrepl itself was reworked for 2.4 to be much more lightweight. But delta-sync will alleviate your 14+ hour issues on stopping/restarting the master.
