I feel uncomfortable with something happening with logging occured. When talking about auth this might be ok, for acct it is definitely not.
My opinion is: waht couldn't get logged shouldn't happen and when replying before *trying* to log this cannot be garuateed. performance
shouldn't affect interity.. just my two cents ;)
Yes and no. I wasn't actually thinking about the accounting part, the initial discussion buried somewhere in the earlier messages was about authentication, where this works.
But since you brought this up, I would argue that this is not so cut and dried as you put it. There are situations where performance takes precedence over accounting.
If you do need to make a choice though, would your priority be to maintain 100% reliability to the customers, or to make sure no minute goes unbilled ? Note that we aren't talking about all or nothing here, but where you would you rather take a small loss ?
