Package: slapd Version: 2.2.23-5 Severity: important The slapd almost stops working while a CPU consuming process like the one started by
echo 3^33333333 | bc & is running on the same machine. That is: a query (e.g. querying a passwd database by pam_ldap) which is answered immediately (i.e. less than 1 second) if no such process is running in parallel can take more than half an hour. One can reduce it to a few minutes by increasing the priority of slapd to the maximum. If one kills the CPU consuming process, the query is answered immediately. The bug is completely reproducible, and I have also reproduced it with the newest version openldap-stable-20050429.tgz from www.openldap.org (compiled with "--enable-crypt"). Only when I compile with the configure option "--with-threads=no", everything is ok, but the slurpd needs threads. With threads, also the test 17 performed by "make test" fails if a CPU consuming process is running in parallel. I have reproduced the bug on the following architectures/kernel versions (always with Debian Sarge): Opteron/2.6.7, Opteron/2.6.11, Athlon/2.6.8, Pentium 4/2.6.8. With Debian Woody on Pentium 4/2.6.7, everything works, also with FreeBSD.
