Sorry to be a little OT.. But may I ask what some more of the specs are for 
that machine? Just trying to get an idea of what different hardware can achieve.

Thanks,


Daniel

Subject: Re: [asterisk-users] Asterisk scalability


I'm sure that an Asterisk developer can chime in and give several examples
of how Asterisk uses its threads to increase scalability. That said, there
will be a point where the number of core/CPU's won't be the bottleneck so
adding more won't help anything.


Asterisk is highly multi-threaded and definitely takes advantage of multiple 
cores.

There are a few places where concurrency could be further improved, but its 
really quite good in 1.4.  (IAX in 1.4 does handle traffic using a thread pool 
so will take advantage of multiple cores).

By the way, I have a client with a four-core Xeon box doing SIP to IAX 
conversion - that box can handle 1000 concurrent calls.

Steve
