LDAP and Sametime Slow

Sorry it's been a bit of a while, but I've been on holidays and haven't had the time to update the blog. Anyway, just another curiosity with the sametime server setup. I moved the server from pointing to a test ldap server running on VMWare with Win 2003 (32 bit) and Domino 8.0.2 to an old LDAP server we had in production running (believe it or not) Windows NT and Domino 6.5.4 it works, but what seemed to be happening is that the sametime LDAP service was slowing down the other things that were using the LDAP. For example, we also have a Lotus Workplace Collaborative Learning (WCL) server running which uses that LDAP for its authentication services. The login times for that product went up dramatically.

Anyway, I pulled the sametime back to the test box and everything went back to normal. We are setting up an 8.0.2 LDAP server to replace our old NT one, so it will be interesting to see if that has the same problem when the other apps are pointing to it. I'll try to keep you posted.
