Sorry, but from my experience openLDAP is *really* lame. The software
needs some serious optimization. openLDAP on a Linux box will give you
roughly 30 authentications per second. Compare this with Netscapes
commercial LDAP directory server, which on the same hardware, under
Windows 2000 will give well over 1000 authentications per second.
Now I hate MS as much as the next guy, but the openLDAP code has a long
way to go. I live in the hope that one day it will kick closed source ass!
