1000 Hz is recommended if you use lot of meetme channels ( and maybe iax
trunking ? ) without a hardware timer .

I always compile custom kernels and have been using 1KHz in all my systems
which are for anything vaguely interactive.

Most of my asterisk systems are 1GHz processors but I have a small handful
which are 533MHz and all are working just fine.

You're not using a recently kernel then ;-) 2.6.20 offers 300Hz too
(supposedly good for video applications)
