That is a very broad question, and there isn’t any debug info provided to aid even a guess at why it’s taking it a long time.

Running a perl script through the exec module sounds like a great way to slow down the server though, loading the perl interpreter every time can’t be fast. Any reason you’re not running it in rlm_perl? This would keep your perl interpreter and script in memory in the freeradius process, and make things a lot quicker than calling it with exec.
