It's been my experience that CPU load of Asterisk don't scale linearly with call volume. I don't pretend to understand all the reasons why, but it probably has a lot to do with call structures inside of Asterisk. For example, searching a linked list is simple when there are only a few items in the list, but the more items that get added to the list, the more CPU time it takes to finish the task, on average. I know the Asterisk developers spent a lot of time and effort improving the performance of the internal structures between the 1.4 branch and the 1.6.0 branch... if I were you, I'd at least give the 1.6.0 branch a shot. -- Jared Smith Training Manager Digium, Inc. _______________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
