Hello Donald -

In this sort of system it is almost always the backend database that is 
the limiting factor, so you should start there.

It is extremely helpful to run Radiator at trace 4 debug with 
LogMicroseconds enabled (requires Time-HiRes from CPAN) to get some 
baseline numbers on how long each processing step is taking. You should 
also check the performance of your database.

Most Radiator customers use multiple Radiator hosts with a load 
balancer in front, and a very fast backend database server.

We are available for consulting on this sort of project if required.

regards

Hugh

NB: have you included a copy of your configuration file (no secrets),
together with a trace 4 debug showing what is happening?
