It seems that the default configuration (and auto-configuration functions) with FDS make it easier to get good performance "out of the box". OpenLDAP requires a bit more digging and tweaking. I would say that there is no reason to choose one over the other strictly on performance alone - both servers are "fast enough" for almost any application. >If you don't mind me asking how big is your current LDAP >infrastructure in terms of entries and number of connections/sec.?
