OpenDJ vs OpenLDAP - OpenIdentityPlatform/OpenDJ GitHub Wiki

Version

Community versions LDAP server software without any tuning:

Environment

For stress performance test used single node with apache-jmeter-5.0 thread pool like 256 concurrent users in simple loop for 600 seconds:

  • Bind
  • Add
  • Search
  • Compare
  • Modify
  • Delete
  • Add without Delete (accumulation of records)
  • Unbind

Results Summary

OpenDJ responded with approximately twice the number of operations per second, after initial warmup.
