OpenLDAP, when properly tuned, is always magnitudes faster than SunOne DS.

I suggest reading over:

<http://wiki.zimbra.com/index.php?title=OpenLDAP_Performance_Tuning_6.0>

which, particularly with the BDB portions, should give you a lot of 
guidance.

Someday when the OpenLDAP foundation has a real wiki, I'll put this 
information there.
