There have been some issues with regard to berkeleydb.4.1 and openldap
lately but starting from openldap-2.1.17 it seems to be stable.
Frankly I have a testing system running under medium load with
openldap-2.1.19 as master and two replicas with openldap-2.1.17. There
are about 100 writes per hour and 3x500 reads per minute. The system
is running now for 4 days.
