Use mdb over hdb

«The mdb backend to slapd(8) is the recommended primary backend for a
normal slapd database. It uses OpenLDAP's own Lightning Memory-Mapped
Database (LMDB) library to store data and is intended to replace the
Berkeley DB backends.

It supports indexing like the BDB backends, but it uses no caching and
requires no tuning to deliver maximum search performance. Like hdb, it
is also fully hierarchical and supports subtree renames in constant
time.»
