(RADIATOR) News about MultiThread

[Hugh Irvine]

Hello Julio -

We do not support multi-threading with Radiator because Perl itself  
does not support production quality multi-threading.

It is almost always the case in my experience that performance  
problems tend to be with the back end database, not with Radiator,  
and in those cases multi-threading will only make the problems worse  
not better.

I generally recommend running two instances of Radiator - one for  
authentication and the other for accounting. This generally improves  
overall performance because the execution profiles are quite different.

There are other design options depending on your precise requirements.

We are available on a contract basis for design and implementation  
consulting.

regards

Hugh

NB:

Have you read the reference manual ("doc/ref.html")?
Have you searched the mailing list archive (www.open.com.au/archives/ 
radiator)?
Have you had a quick look on Google (www.google.com)?
Have you included a copy of your configuration file (no secrets),
together with a trace 4 debug showing what is happening?
