Hello all, let me also give some experience from the VirtualBox side (Community Version).
Host machine ========== AMD X2 64 3800 with 8GB of RAM OS is a generic Debian 4.0R5 with Kernel 2.6.18-6-amd64 No special parameters in the Kernel. Started with VirtualBox 1.5 and now on 2.0.x Client machine (freeswitch) =========== Ubuntu 8.041 Generic Kernel 2.6.24-18-generic #1 SMP, 1 CPU Experience: =========== A single call produces about 20% CPU load. So this is not usefull for any production environment. I did not discover any dropouts in a normal call between internal and external UAs/gateways since 6 months. So for testing purposes its fine. Voice between User Agents is always fine. Seldomly I hear choppy voice when announcements are played. After some minutes these problems go away. Resume =========== For testing/development purposes, FS on VirtualBox is fine. For any productive environment it's not really usable in our environment. Comparison with Asterisk ================= Asterisk never worked in this environment: Choppe voice between UAs and when playing sound. 100% CPU load on a single call. ========== Best regards Peter Gregory Boehnlein schrieb: > You'll never fix this.
