  That's really a function of the back-end database.  If you have a
slow database, accounting will be slow.

  In my tests, logging to "detail", FreeRADIUS easily handles 1000's
of accounting packets per second.  So the difference between 1000s/s,
and 200/s is the difference between local files & external DB.
