I am having a problem with the SQLIPPOOL performance. This is migration of an existing radius server using flat user files (old server is running radius 1.1.0). Running freeradius-server-snapshot-20070705 on a P4 2.8GHZ machine Database is Postgres 8.1.9 running on a monstrous Sun Opteron machine. When radius starts taking requests (it's a lot of requests, about 500/sec), the load on the radius server spikes to 100 and it eventually stops taking requests completely. The database is never above 0.05 load. I see messages like these in the radius logs: Wed Jul 25 10:29:15 2007 : Info: IP Allocation FAILED from general_pool (did slogic.t-mobile.com cli 14696841693 port 0 user 14696841693) Wed Jul 25 10:29:15 2007 : Info: IP Allocation FAILED from general_pool (did slogic.t-mobile.com cli 19723023688 port 0 user 19723023688) Wed Jul 25 10:29:15 2007 : Info: IP Allocation FAILED from general_pool (did slogic.t-mobile.com cli 14696845996 port 0 user 14696845996) Wed Jul 25 10:29:15 2007 : Info: IP Allocation FAILED from general_pool (did slogic.t-mobile.com cli 14696846177 port 0 user 14696846177) Wed Jul 25 10:29:15 2007 : Info: IP Allocation FAILED from general_pool (did slogic.t-mobile.com cli 14696825390 port 0 user 14696825390) Wed Jul 25 10:29:15 2007 : Info: IP Allocation FAILED from general_pool (did slogic.t-mobile.com cli 14694415538 port 0 user 14694415538) Wed Jul 25 10:29:15 2007 : Info: IP Allocation FAILED from general_pool (did slogic.t-mobile.com cli 14696883664 port 0 user 14696883664) Wed Jul 25 10:29:15 2007 : Info: IP Allocation FAILED from general_pool (did slogic.t-mobile.com cli 12149915071 port 0 user 12149915071) Wed Jul 25 10:29:15 2007 : Info: IP Allocation FAILED from general_pool (did slogic.t-mobile.com cli 19728908614 port 0 user 19728908614) Wed Jul 25 10:29:15 2007 : Info: IP Allocation FAILED from general_pool (did slogic.t-mobile.com cli 19723023948 port 0 user 19723023948) Wed Jul 25 10:29:15 2007 : Error: Discarding duplicate request from client nas01 port 1812 - ID: 102 due to unfinished request 3988 Wed Jul 25 10:29:15 2007 : Error: Discarding duplicate request from client nas01 port 1812 - ID: 62 due to unfinished request 3987 Wed Jul 25 10:29:15 2007 : Error: Discarding duplicate request from client nas01 port 1812 - ID: 116 due to unfinished request 3989 Wed Jul 25 10:29:15 2007 : Error: Discarding duplicate request from client nas01 port 1812 - ID: 121 due to unfinished request 3990 Wed Jul 25 10:29:15 2007 : Error: Discarding duplicate request from client nas01 port 1812 - ID: 26 due to unfinished request 3991 Wed Jul 25 10:29:15 2007 : Info: rlm_sql (sql): There are no DB handles to use! skipped 0, tried to connect 0 Wed Jul 25 10:29:15 2007 : Info: rlm_sql (sql): There are no DB handles to use! skipped 0, tried to connect 0 Wed Jul 25 10:29:15 2007 : Info: rlm_sql (sql): There are no DB handles to use! skipped 0, tried to connect 0 Wed Jul 25 10:29:15 2007 : Info: rlm_sql (sql): There are no DB handles to use! skipped 0, tried to connect 0 Wed Jul 25 10:29:15 2007 : Info: rlm_sql (sql): There are no DB handles to use! skipped 0, tried to connect 0 Wed Jul 25 10:29:15 2007 : Info: rlm_sql (sql): There are no DB handles to use! skipped 0, tried to connect 0 Wed Jul 25 10:29:15 2007 : Info: rlm_sql (sql): There are no DB handles to use! skipped 0, tried to connect 0 Wed Jul 25 10:29:15 2007 : Info: rlm_sql (sql): There are no DB handles to use! skipped 0, tried to connect 0 Wed Jul 25 10:29:15 2007 : Info: rlm_sql (sql): There are no DB handles to use! skipped 0, tried to connect 0 Wed Jul 25 10:29:15 2007 : Info: rlm_sql (sql): There are no DB handles to use! skipped 0, tried to connect 0 Wed Jul 25 10:29:15 2007 : Error: Discarding duplicate request from client nas01 port 1812 - ID: 105 due to unfinished request 3992 Wed Jul 25 10:29:15 2007 : Error: Discarding duplicate request from client nas01 port 1812 - ID: 74 due to unfinished request 3993 Wed Jul 25 10:29:15 2007 : Error: Discarding duplicate request from client nas01 port 1812 - ID: 29 due to unfinished request 3994 Wed Jul 25 10:29:15 2007 : Info: rlm_sql (sql): There are no DB handles to use! skipped 0, tried to connect 0 Wed Jul 25 10:29:15 2007 : Auth: Login OK: [12146063348] (from client nas01 port 0 cli 12146063348) I have tried playing with the numbers of threads (I used the current radius servers setting to start) and the results are the same. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks, Roy
