Turns out the issue I was facing was not with the memberOf plugin, but
rather with the excessively large groups I was attempting to import on
an untuned 389ds instance. To insure groups would be properly
imported I had to increase the value of nsslapd-maxbersize and
nsslapd-db-locks. Thankfully 389ds logging is clear when errors with
these undersized parameters are encountered, one merely need to pay
attention to what's being recorded in the errors log.

Concerning 389ds performance tuning, are the Red Hat documents[1]
considered authoritative? Or are there other resources I should be
looking at as well?

Thanks again,
Bob
