  Like losing requests if the server goes down.  If the requests are
on disk, the "detail" file acts like a FIFO, and is permanent storage.

  I'm not sure that this would work for RADIUS.  The NAS is getting
10^4 people logging in at the same time, and slowing down the response
for person A won't change the speed of the accounting requests for
person B.
