xtradius is good for non heavy loads authentication. but for a very busy
authentication server, xtradius wont scale because it will consume a lots of
memory (for every external program called). open and close afterwards a
mysql database file for every authentication made (which is a very expensive
thing to do).
a good alternative for xtradius when using a mysql database is icradius
which you can find also at the same site xtradius at
http://www.freeradius.org icradius algorithm open a mysql database at
startup and close it when the daemon stops.
