The system needs to be designed carefully, but it *does* work.
You don't even need to be that careful. Just run a read-only mysql slave instance locally on the radius server and all mysql-related performance problems will vanish. If you do mysql accounting: use buffered-sql aka decoupled-accounting. It won't fix the performance issues on your accounting mysql-server, but it will decouple the radius server from any such problems. Bjørn - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe?
