Hi Torsten,
I wanted to let you know I've updated my quicktool patch to OpenLDAP. A
developer found a bug in the patch in the HEAD tree, so I've updated mine
as well. It only affects people who would load out-of-order LDIF's (almost
no one), but it is a potential issue.
You can get the latest patch from here:
<http://www.stanford.edu/services/directory/openldap/configuration/patches/openldap/>
I also recommend the 64bit and listen-queue patches, which will be in OL
2.2.27.
Without the 64 bit patch, a 64 bit OL server will overwrite its thread
stack.
The listen-queue patch fixes an issue where the default listen queue in
OpenLDAP was 10 (rather than 1024 like most *nix's default to these days),
and also lets you over ride the listen queue with a compile time variable.
It has a definite performance benefit impact.
Also, OL 2.2.23 had a serious bug in it, and I think it would be great if
Debian Sarge could get bumped up to 2.2.26 + the above patches before Sarge
is officially released.

"These censorship operations against schools and libraries are stronger
than ever in the present religio-political climate. They often focus on
fantasy and sf books, which foster that deadly enemy to bigotry and blind
faith, the imagination." -- Ursula K. Le Guin
