We are using debian lenny that I guess has a reasonable threading implementation. with the standard free-radius package ( version 2.0.4) is any body aware of this kind of issue with Lenny and this version of Freeradius?
The fact that free radius man page contain the following sentence : "The server normally runs with multiple threads and/or processes, which can lower its response time to requests." Seems to indicate that this is a know fact on some system Is any body has this kind of issue ?
No, you've mis-read that. It "lowers the time" i.e. makes it faster. This is all very bizarre, debian is normal OS, and FreeRadius should *not* be running slower in threaded mode. How are you measuring this performance? What configuration changes have you made from the default (please don't send all your config files - just a brief description of which modules you've got enabled) Could you send the debug output (i.e. "radiusd -X") for a *SINGLE* one of the performance-test requests?
