If this can help somebody, I have posted an example of script to modify the dse.ldif. The server must be stopped before running the script (before modifying manually dse.ldif):

It's not required to stop the server and manually edit dse.ldif to change nsslapd-cachememsize (entry cache size).  Additionally, changing this parameter over LDAP takes effect immediately, no restart required.  Maybe you were thinking of other parameters?

If you are a perl hacker, you could use the FileConn.pm perl module
provided with 389-ds-base.
