hi frank albertstien,

according description, want optimize nps performance.

as far know, there several tips improve nps performance:

1. install nps role on dc;

2. disable nas notification forwarding;

3. if nps server not installed on dc, , receiving large number of authentication requests per second, we can improve performance increasing number of concurrent authentications between nps server , domain controller.

to this, may edit following registry key: hkey_local_machine\system\currentcontrolset\services\netlogon\parameters. add new value named maxconcurrentapi , assign value 2 through 5. if assign value maxconcurrentapi high, nps server might place excessive load on domain controller

you may click following links learn detailed information how improve nps performance:
