Sorry to step in here but I think the 2 of you are talking at cropp
purposes

I initial query was about a dialplan reload, not an asterisk restart.

Jerry, how long does your system take to perform a dialplan reload?
surely it is under a second. 

If you look in the logs, at the end of any dialplan reload (well in 1.8
at least) you will get some time stats such as below

[2012-10-29 00:10:03] VERBOSE[19096] pbx.c:     -- Time to scan old dialplan 
and merge leftovers back into the new: 0.000041 sec
[2012-10-29 00:10:03] VERBOSE[19096] pbx.c:     -- Time to restore hints and 
swap in new dialplan: 0.000003 sec
[2012-10-29 00:10:03] VERBOSE[19096] pbx.c:     -- Time to delete the old 
dialplan: 0.000004 sec
[2012-10-29 00:10:03] VERBOSE[19096] pbx.c:     -- Total time 
merge_contexts_delete: 0.000048 sec

As you can see in this example it takes under a ten thousandth of a
second.

Is that something to really be concerned about?

Regards

Ish
