Hi David,
I am running into the exact same problem and I think we have had countless
questions about ldif loading similar to this on the mailing list in the past
couple of months. It is clear that this will become a major issue so we
will definitely need to address this. I will go ahead and create a Jira
issue for it and I will give it a generic subject to improve ldif loading in
general.
