Ok, so by default there is no changelog trimming enabled.  So the
changelog will grow without bounds, which is bad.

I recommend setting up the changelog max age to 7 days:

https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_directory_server/11/html/administration_guide/trimming_the_replication_changelog

Once that the trimming cleans up the changelog the database compaction
should work without issue.  You can also increase the database locks to
1 million (that does require a restart of the server to take effect).

HTH,

Mark
