What's the largest you've seen? Was that in production, in a test
environment, or hypothetical? Was it on a single Asterisk machine or
multiple?
A couple of years ago, a guy described (on the user list?) a conference
system he built with 6,000 participants.
As I remember, it was for NASCAR fans to listen in to the drivers during
the race. Callers could choose which driver (by car number?).
He described the system as a tree. The top level had the original feeds.
Each level below was hosts connected as a participant in the upstream
host's conference until he had enough levels to have enough hosts to
handle 6,000 callers.
That's interesting. Do you know how many Asterisk machines he needed?
