Hi I am trying to tune the performance of the Directory Server. We have increased the memory for the database cache and for each database entry cache. These are the new values: cn=config, cn=ldbm database, cn=plugins, cn=config nsslapd-dbcachesize: 838860800 (~800MB) cn=*,cn=ldbm database, cn=plugins, cn=config nsslapd-cachememsize: 125829120 (~120MB) We have 27 databases, and the servers have 16 GB of RAM, so the server should be able to handle all that memory (800 + 120*27 = 4040MB). But when I go to the monitoring section of the management console, the database cache says the hit ratio is 99% (this is OK according to the documentation, near 100%), but the entry cache is 0%, that is very far for 100% that the documentation recomends (see screenshots attached). Am I confused or the configuration is not correct?
