Don't forget to chown the index files that it creates to ldap. By default they will be owned by root and your ldap daemon will not be able to read them.

Use slapindex to index it (kill slapd first, of course). If you just add the index options to slapd.conf and don't reindex, then the next time you add an account you'll be in for a nastier surprise than mere slowness -- it'll fail to look up *any* account info (other than your newly added account), because it'll be using incomplete index files.
