Hmm, when I saw your post I was thinking of a recent openldap paper[1]. 
They use berkeleyDB as well. They saw a performance improvement using 4.6.x 

Maybe that offers perspective. I did a quick rescan of the archives of 
this list some weeks ago and I remember seeing a bugreport compiling inn 
against db 4.6.x . iirc though ! I presume BDB is a key factor in expire() 
.

Regards,
Robert
