There is no limit in Radiator on the number of Realms or Handlers that you can
use. However there are some considerations to keep in mind. 

Realms are stored in a table that is indexed by the Realm name, so finding 
a Realm to process a particular radius request is very quick and efficient
(just a single table lookup). 

Handlers on the other hand are stored in a linear list, and the tests in the
Handler definitions are evaluated for each Handler in sequence until the
correct one is found to process a radius request. This needs to be considered
if you have a large number of different Handlers.

There is also a special form of Handler that can be used if you have the case of
dealing with a large number of identical Handler clauses, such as
Called-Station-Id for VPDN or wholesale applications. In this case, have a look
at the module "CalledStationId.pm" in the goodies directory to see how to build
this special form of Handler.
