Maybe I didn`t write it correct. At this moment i`m using rlm_perl to do everythink. The perl code also contains internal cache to prevent contact LDAP server (each time). So I can process request quicker.
I've tested LDAP servers at 10K auth/s. There shouldn't be a need for caching. And FreeRADIUS can talk to LDAP natively. There's no need to use Perl for that.
But perl code has limitation. As I understand, only one thread (locking) can use perl code at the same time.
Perl is thread-safe. rlm_perl is thread-safe.
Therefore I want to use rlm_cache to store reply&control for request, so I don`t need to call perl code if request was correct / incorrect last time.
I would suggest just using the LDAP module. It's simpler, and it works. Alan DeKok.
