I think the performance is only comparable using the same auth schemes. We have radiator running under Solaris 9. Charly, I am hoping to use Solaris 9 / MySql to authenticate around 20,000 users on a Sun Enterprise 250 (2x400Mhz UltraSparc CPU's with 2Gb RAM) We have no problem authenticating about ~16000+ users on a single dual pentium-pro 200 running FreeBSD. This is all auth'd out of flat files for now (Working on AuthBy SQL). Of course, there are weird things that happen once in a while (Like Radiator Blocking when you are doing a large change on the Database)...but overall I'm fairly pleased with the performance. Keep in mind that radius packets are generally small in relation to other types of traffic. The accounting logs and session database are stored on a MySQL box with about 5G used.

(RADIATOR) Radiator performance on various platforms.
Hi All, We are looking at upgrading our radiator / radius server and are considering the various platform options available to us. The radiator reference manual cites various performance measurements using versions of hardware and operating systems which are now several generations out of date. Does anyone have any performance information on radiator running on the likes of Solaris 8/9, Redhat 7 or NT 2000 with modern hardware? If so would they like to share their experiences? Thanks in advance, Brian. === Archive at http://www.open.com.au/archives/radiator/ Announcements on [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe, email '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' with 'unsubscribe radiator' in the body of the message.

Charly, I am hoping to use Solaris 9 / MySql to authenticate around 20,000 users on a Sun Enterprise 250 (2x400Mhz UltraSparc CPU's with 2Gb RAM) We currently run on 2000 Server with MSSQL7 and 512Mb RAM. The current accounting database is around 2Gb in size. Performance is currently fine, but I have doubts about it handling anticipated growth over the next 12 months.

Hello Brian - The largest installation that we are aware of currently runs on multiple SUN servers (each with multi-processors and each running two instances of Radiator). These servers have a load-balancer in front of them and on the backend there is an enterprise class SUN server running Oracle. This installation has tested throughput up to 1200 radius requests per second. On any modern hardware you will see throughput in the several hundreds per second. However you need to be aware that the performance limitations are almost always due to external factors such as the database.
