Performance

link contacts the remote server, forwards the operation, waits for the result, and then sends the result back to the client application. The entire operation can take much longer than a local operation.

While the database link waits for results from the remote server, it can process additional operations. By default, the number of threads used by the server is 30. However, when using database links, performance can be improved by increasing the number of threads available for processing operations. While the local CPU waits for a response from a remote server, it can process other operations rather than stand idle.

To change the number of threads used for processing operations, change the nsslapd-thread number global configuration attribute in the cn=config entry. Increasing the thread number can improve performance; the default thread number is 30. Restart the server after changing the thread count to apply the changes.

3.7. Advanced Feature: Configuring Cascading Chaining

The database link can be configured to point to another database link, creating a cascading chaining operation. A cascading chain occurs any time more than one hop is required to access all of the data in a directory tree.

Cascading chaining occurs when more than one hop is required for the directory to process a client application's request. For example:
