That wouldn't be hugely surprising if your database wasn't well set up, to be honest.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Dec 16, 2009 at 2:41 PM, Tejesh Vijayakumar <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:Tejesh.Vijayakumar@lntinfotech.com">Tejesh.Vijayakumar@lntinfotech.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

My main query was why the difference of 45 [125 auth/sec - 80 auths/sec]. The no of auths per sec is dropping at a fast rate as the number of users are increasing. How to make that consistent upto some point say for atleast one million users. [i.e auths/sec would be almost same for no of users upto one million users].<br>

<br>
for users file you might get better performance moving to the 'fastusers' module which hashes<br>
the entries?<br>
<br>
for the SQL - if you have more records then it takes longer to find entries in the database!<br>
this is basic database stuff - you need to index the required columns that you want good results<br>
from - recommend douglas and douglas postgres book - published by Developers library - or<br>
just the main posgres documentation from their site. this isnt a FreeRADIUS problem<br>
