We didn't see any mayor effects but we did get increasing reports of random connection 
failures, which I think would be related to the conflicting requests.  People would 
get on later but would have to try 2-3 times to auth.

one problem we are currently experiencing with 0.9.1 from CVS is that the system spins 
out of control after it has been up for around 2 days.  The problem happens when a 
script runs to process radacct data (it just basically moves rows from one table to 
another).  Now this script runs every day at 4am.. but the freeradius daemon only goes 
nuts on the 3rd day that the script runs, if I stop and start the daemon then it will 
be fine for 2 days (including the times when this happens).

Could this be a sign of something changing in the SQL module? (i'll try a diff later)
