Freeradius 3.0.7 and multiple buffered-sql servers - detail file issues

Hello all.

I am trying to migrate the freeradius 2.2.5 to 3.0.7. The server is doing just Acounting request processing and is loading requests to MariaDB with radacct table on InnoDB engine allowing row level locking.  There are 128 detail files derived from Calling-Station-Id attribute using mod 128:

        Queue-Number = "%{expr: %{Calling-Station-Id} %% 128 }"
        detailfile = ${radacctdir}/detail.mobile/queue-${Queue-Number}/detail-%Y%m%d-%H

Then there are 128 buffered-sql servers reading these detail files and feeding the radacct table:

server buffered-sql-0 {
        listen {
                type = detail
                filename = "${radacctdir}/detail.mobile/queue-0/detail-*"
                load_factor = 85
                track = yes
                poll_interval = 5
                retry_interval = 30
        }
        preacct {
                   acct_unique
        }
        accounting {
        sql
                if (noop) {
                ok
        }
        }
}
.
.
.
server buffered-sql-127 {
        listen {
                type = detail
                filename = "${radacctdir}/detail.mobile/queue-127/detail-*"
                load_factor = 85
                track = yes
                poll_interval = 5
                retry_interval = 30
        }
        preacct {
                   acct_unique
        }
        accounting {
        sql
                if (noop) {
                ok
        }
        }
}

This setup is working fine with 2.2.5 version and is very fast. I am able to process more that 1.500 Acct req/s realtime.  When I try to use 3.0.7, I am facing some issues:

1. Bad file descriptor message. Looks like it is caused by track = yes config option. When switched to no, it dissapears. What is the problem here?

2. When the server is loaded with ~350 req/s, it is ok. When the load is ~1500 req/s, I can see tons of errors in the log file:
