Ok. RTFM is sometimes helpfull. I am using radlcient with -p 10 now from
a remote host:

radclient -s -p10 -f seppel <IP of radius-server>:1812 auth testing123 -q

175sec
	   Total approved auths:  19762
	     Total denied auths:  964
	       Total lost auths:  0


Gives aprox 118 req per sec, system load on radserver < 1

with -p 25
Gives aprox 283 req per sec, system load on radserver > 5


For a virtual host with database and radius on one machine, it should be
ok. I will test some day with a real database server.
