I assume you mean how many virtual machines each with their own asterisk installation... I do want to do some testing to see what if any are the performance drawbacks to running asterisk in a VM. I'm using Xen to do para-virtualization which should not waist many resources but it would be great to see some real world numbers. My current plan is to test using sipp a single asterisk installation on a non-xen installation of CentOS 5.1. Then testing a single asterisk installation on a DomU (VM). Then to test 4 asterisk installations each in their own VM simultaneously. Any other feeback on how to test this setup would be great. Some details about my setup: I'm using CentOs 5.1 x86_64 on a Dual Xeon 3.2ghz EM64T with 4GB of ECC registered ram (PC3200 I believe). I have two 320GB SATA Seagate drives (7200rpm 16mb cache) setup in Raid 1 + LVM. I've also managed to get ztdummy working in the VMs. Still not sure about my kernel timer but the results seem ok. Any feeback on these results from zttest --- Results after 157 passes --- Best: 100.000 -- Worst: 99.606 -- Average: 99.978964, Difference: 100.020471 --- Results after 57 passes --- Best: 100.000 -- Worst: 99.608 -- Average: 99.971454, Difference: 100.027850 Thanks, Blaine Aldridge --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
