[GnomeMeeting-list] Seeting up ILS Server myself

[Stefan Sonnenberg-Carstens <stefan sonnenberg online de>]

Hello list,
first of all I want to thank the developers of gnomemeeting for their 
excellent work.
It is really working fine and stable on my gentoo box, so I'm quite happy with 
it.

Now to my question
A friend and I set up an ILS server like mentioned in the 
Linux-Netmeeting-Howto. It works fine, I also read the things in this 460 
page+ thing about LDAP mentioned here on the list, but one thing I can't 
handle : THE LOAD OF THE SERVER.
Everything is set up as mentioned in the howto, and everything is fine, unless
you have 50+ users on the server ( it is a 1,2GHz Athlon, 512MB and a SCSI3 
RAID-1 goody).
Then the load raises so high.
I think the Perl script is the limiting factor.
Even at home (same hardware, except the SCSI thing), when I connect a Windows 
XP - Netmeeting client (1, and only 1), the tendence is reproducable by 
pressing repeatedly "F5" in the directory listing. The load goes beond "2" 
for a simple, repeated ldap-search.
Someone here on this list suggests to ask such questions here, because some of 
your developers seem to know the NDK quiet well, so don't bomb with this "off 
topic" thing.
I even tried to contact Mr. Baccala a longer time ago, is he alive ? (he never 
answered)
Has anyone had such problems before ?
Any suggestions ?
Any solutions ?
(Do I realy have to set up a Windows 2000 Server to reliable performance for 
this ?)

Kindly yours,
