Bruce,
I looked at the link you referred to, and your issue and this one are
not related as far as I can see. He has a P4-3.6GHz w 2GB of ram, scsi
drives and over 1000 active sip channels. What they were referring to
is that linux will use as much ram as possible before utilizing the swap.
When you say time it takes on the RED BAR, this is due to a lack of
resources. When you hit the apply changes, the long delay is due to the
lack of resources for running mySQL, apache, the trixbox interface
overhead and asterisk. I'd say you probably do not want to deploy tb2.2,
if you want to run on an older machine, try one of the older versions of
[EMAIL PROTECTED], or at least roll back and try tb2.0. There have been alot of
complaints of bloat and slowness in 2.2.
Just a few more cents worth

Check this URL and you will see another same incident:

Thanks for the feedback.

Subject: Re: [on-asterisk] memory leak
Bruce,
A couple of things come to mind.
First never make your swap more then double your RAM, and in the
world of real time apps, you never want to use it.. In what you
have here swap is 3x, and physical is running at 96%, so your at
your physical limit and will start experiencing mem swapping which
is not a good thing when running a real time app like VOIP. If you
were to throw another 256 in your system will be a lot happier.
256MB is enough if your running straight asterisk and not doing
any transcoding, but with trixbox and all of it's extra goodies,
I'd say you would need at least a P4 w 512 to run reliably. I have
3 Asterisk servers, only one is trixbox and I have 3/4GB in it on
an AMD Athlon 1.8 and it runs without any hickups, with about 20
users on it. Disk only really comes into play with recording. Once
Asterisk is loaded and running most of t is in memory so disk
access is minimal ( CDR, DB writes and reads, logs )
If you want to reliably use the P3 especially w 256, do a no
frills asterisk install, and dump trixbox.
Just my 3 cents ( inflation)

Hello Everyone,
I have a P3 with 256MB SDRAM on board of an old test computer.
I also had a 20GB hard disk with it that had lots of bad
sectors on it :)
Everyone once in a while the system memory will overload and
from what I got of the group (TAUG) I thought that errors were
related to the hard disk.
Well, now I changed it to a 250GB and just for keeping the
system on for a day without any extensions or even trunks
setup the memory bar goes to red.
Here is a copy of the system status page:

Is the 256MB not enough for a TB 2.2 system?
Thanks,
