Synchronous + Asynchronous proxying

Hello,
According to proxy.conf asynchronous configuration is disabled.
I want to manage the realms by setting parameter synchronous or
asynchronous, means that switch the configuration each other. Asynchronous
is needed to queue the accounting packages, retransmission etc.
Do you have any comment on this?

        #  In 2.0, the server is always "synchronous", and setting
        #  "synchronous = no" is impossible.  This simplifies the
        #  server and increases the stability of the network.
        #  However, it means that the server (i.e. proxy) NEVER
        #  originates packets.  It proxies packets ONLY when it receives
        #  a packet or a re-transmission from the NAS.  If the NAS never
        #  re-transmits, the proxy never re-transmits, either.  This can
        #  affect fail-over, where a packet does *not* fail over to a
        #  second home server.. because the NAS never retransmits the
        #  packet.
        #
        #  If you need to set "synchronous = no", please send a
        #  message to the list <freeradius-users at lists.freeradius.org>
        #  explaining why this feature is vital for your network.
