Feel free to experiment with it and see whether it suits your need.

Why was this undocumented strictrefresh option limited to delta-syncrepl?

Also some relevant discussion here http://www.openldap.org/lists/openldap-devel/200510/msg00083.html

The biggest danger is in a multi-master config where two nodes point at each other. If they are both started at the same time, and both deny searches while refresh is in progress, it's easy to get into a state where both servers are stuck waiting for each other's refresh to complete.
