Since you are using Red Hat Directory Server, you should contact Red Hat support. import buffer is only when using ldif2db. LDAP Add is much slower than ldif2db. I think part of it is that CoS is optimized for searching, but not so much for adding new CoS definitions - it builds a cache in memory to make searches go very quickly, but building the cache takes time during each add or modify operation. >>> There are about 500k objects in the directory currently and its >>> broken down in a hierarchical format. >>> A simple ASCII drawing would be. >>> >>> ou=top >>> | >>> - ou=First >>> | >>> + ou=Second >>> | >>> + cn=Final >>> >>> >>> This is representation of the data but for ease of explanation this >>> should work. >>> >>> There are lots of "First" object and they have the possibility of >>> lots of "second" objects.
