Still an order of magnitude slower / less efficient than OpenLDAP / LMDB.

Still an order of magnitude slower / less efficient than OpenLDAP / LMDB.
- lelouch11 3y agoThe same argument came up in a big company, incidentally for the same use case, certificate store in a CA. This led to benchmarks, where OpenLDAP was significantly slower, like three orders of magnitudes. Databases have gotten really faster in the last couple of years while OpenLDAP has stagnated.
- hyc_symas 3y agoGot a link to a report on that? OpenLDAP serves queries at line rate on multi-gigabit NICs, with latencies indistinguishable from ping RTTs. Other databases aren't even close.
- hyc_symas 3y agoInnoDB is a bloated pig. No, it hasn't gotten 5 orders of magnitude faster in the past 10 years. http://www.lmdb.tech/bench/memcache/ http://www.lmdb.tech/bench/memcache/ And the overhead of SQL processing vs LDAP protocol hasn't improved any either. You're spouting lies.
- berkle4455 3y agoWould their needs be met by a simple key-value store?
- WJW 3y agoStill completely sufficient for the workload, apparently.
- hyc_symas 3y agoWouldn't need to upgrade server hardware as often...
