I was mostly curious if the difference in cache configurations has any negative effect on the integrity of the replication agreement between the directory instances.

To illustrate, say one directory instance is managing several root suffixes and has increased cache settings. The other instance has default settings. The default instance is perfectly capable of operating on the replicated data-set and/or doesn't have the performance requirements of the other instance.

Thanks,
Patrick

Is it required (or at least suggested) that multi-mastered directory server instances have the equal values for dbcache and entry cache settings? If so, what adverse effects result from not configuring the caches similarly?

There is a tool which you can use to monitor the caches:
