My coleagues & I are discussing an interesting idea. Would it
be possible to handle slow AuthRADIUS proxy requests in a single
process (forked out of main radiusd)?

That process would have a communication line with main radius
daemon through some socket (or whatever) and handle all slow
requests in one big select loop (instead of forking an extra
process to do the job for less then a few packets). That would
make more efficient use of system resources.
