<p class=MsoNormal>Hi,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I am evaluating freeradius with jradius. Currently i am
performing performance testing for the Freeradius-Jradius combination using
radperf tool. JRadius is simply authenticating the user from the
jradius-config.xml file using one of the default handlers, so nothing fancy
there. Here are a few numbers that i get.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Standalone Freeradius<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>500 requests/sec gives me 461<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>1000 requests/sec gives me 858<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Freeradius with JRadius ( Standard 8 connections in the
configuration)<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>500 requests/sec gives me 60<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>1000 requests/sec gives me 152<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>So, as you can see, the performance numbers are way lower
when JRadius is used. I tried increasing the connections and the threads in
jradius but it did not help. I understand that since the freeradius to jradius
connection pool uses tcp sockets, the performance will be lower than when
freeradius is run by itself but this low is something I did not expect.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Has anybody run into this issue? Is there a way around to
getting the performance numbers higher?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Thanks for your help!<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Hema.<o:p></o:p></p>
