timing test
Attempting to test a timer with 50 ticks per second.
Using the 'timerfd' timing module for this test.
It has been 1000 milliseconds, and we got 50 timer ticks

The "timing test" CLI command will state it. Does the VM have guaranteed
resources?

one way conf is ME - setting up users to be Muted.
[ConfUserMuted]
type=user
quiet=yes
startmuted=yes
announce_only_user=no
announce_user_count_all=no
announce_join_leave=no

The people at that environment shared that the audio is choppy or drops out.

The server is Virtual server. How do you tell what "timer" is used ?

Thanks

I did just now change the mixing_interval to 40. Asked them to try again.

WHich setting has the BIGGEST impact ? (typically)

For codec all the endpoints are just ulaw and alaw.

The conf joins all the endpoints in a one-way conf.

60+ devices and packets choppy or dropping audio.

The CPU is decent at Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E3-1240 v5 @ 3.50GHz

What else might I tweak to get this working without audio dropping ?
not much else is running on the server besides - asterisk.


What else have you tried ?  jitterbuffer ?  mixing_interval ? codecs ?
