Hi, Mark,

     When you say 'there is no way to "tune"' sorting, does that mean that indexing won't help?

Correct, sorting does not use indexes.  Not sure how you could index sorted results since there are countless ways you can sort result sets.  So sorting takes the resulting entries (which might be gathered by indexes) but then it reorders/sorts them based on the sort control provided.

The other option would be to use VLV indexes which are sort of predefined sorted results.  VLV searches are a bit more complicated though: https://docs.redhat.com/en/documentation/red_hat_directory_server/12/html/managing_indexes/assembly_using-the-virtual-list-view-control-to-request-a-contiguous-subset-of-a-large-search-result_managing-indexes
