Subject: Checkpointing in slapd bdb backend?

Hi all,=20

A Debian user reported about a missing checkpoint directive in
slapd.conf leading to data loss (see http://bugs.debian.org/272984). I
can't imagine how that would happen but I wonder why checkpointing is
only done during shutdown of slapd by default (I'd expect that to happen
really seldom).

I'd rather have the default changed if it increases data security=20
or slapd behaviour in case of a system crash. But I guess that's=20
upstreams call.=20

Comments?

Greetings
