Doc Text:
.Importing large LDIF files to Directory Server databases with many nested-subtrees is now significantly faster Previously, if the Directory Server database contained many nested sub-trees, importing a large LDIF file using the `ldif2db` and `ldif2db.pl` utilities was slow. With this update, Directory Server adds the `ancestorid` index after all entries. As a result, importing LDIF files to a database with many nested sub-trees is now significantly faster.
