About the LDAP Load Gen Project

Shawn McKinney

Updated: Mar 3, 2022


LDAP Load Generator is a tool we use at Symas to drive load tests for OpenLDAP releases.

What Can It Do?

Add, Modify, Delete, Read, Search, Bind and Compare operations with LDAP User and Group entries. It can be used to add millions of entries and then interrogate them. Creating large groups with many hundreds of thousands of entries. Measuring the response times and throughput.

What Else?

Replication corner cases like conflicting updates, read after update, failed binds across the cluster, and more.

How Does It Work?

Written in Java it uses the Apache Jmeter and Apache Fortress frameworks but doesn't require any special setup or schemas beyond what's present in this package.

How Do I Get Started?

Read the README. If you have any questions, post them to this project.
