The stack traces from the ns-slapd core would be very helpful.

1. login as root
2. ps -ef | grep ns-slapd
ldapuser   27526     1  0 Sep24 ?        00:02:21 ./ns-slapd -D ...
3. attach the process to gdb
# gdb /usr/sbin/ns-slapd 27526
gdb> continue
4. start the LDAP intensive application

Hopefully, it makes ns-slapd crash.  Then, run bt command:
gdb> thread apply all bt

Thanks,

ok.. it pulled 389-ds-base-1.2.6-2.fc13.x86_64.. is that ok or do i need to be on 1.2.6-1?  On 1.2.6-2 I'm having the same problem.  As soon as I start an application that is ldap intensive, the directory server crashes real quick.  No errors of any sort reported.

There were a couple of crashing bugs that have been fixed in 1.2.6.1-1 -
now available in the Testing repos.  Please try to install
389-ds-base-1.2.6.1-1 from the updates-testing repo and see if that
fixes your problem.
