What kind of server are you running?

I have a Linux server running on a 486DX4/100 with 64M RAM. Livingston
RADIUS 2.0.1 (plus a local patch) has been up and running for three
weeks now. I have 8 DEFAULT entries and get about five thousand
authentication requests per day. My RADIUS daemon is taking up about
500K of RAM. I don't think there are any major memory leaks in it.

Are you using a dbm users file? I am not - maybe that makes a
difference.
