Re: [asterisk-users] Max how many users in sip.conf
later i figured out the following. my sip.conf was 2.2Mega Bytes size when populated with 50k users. That means 2.2 x 1024 = 2.2 GB of memory. which is definitely not an option with my small amazon system. I tried with 20k users, hola.. everything works fine. tried with 25k, still works, but asterisk took time to load sip module. tried with 40k, asterisk couldn't start. so decided to settle with 25k userbase. regards MT Kondela On Mon, Nov 30, 2009 at 9:13 PM, Noah Miller noahisaacmil...@gmail.comwrote: I’m running CENTOS 5.3 with apache 2, asterisk 1.4.26.2, mysql 5 and php 5.2.11. top shows 928mb out of 1035mb in use with idle asterisk and 17 users.

Re: [asterisk-users] Max how many users in sip.conf
Perhaps the sip.conf could be simplified so that each user would take a smaller chunk. In my experience, either way the system will take some time (several minutes) to start up with this quantity of users (20 or 50K). -Original Message- From: asterisk-users-boun...@lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-boun...@lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of Leif Neland Sent: Tuesday, December 01, 2009 8:23 AM To: Asterisk Users Mailing List - Non-Commercial Discussion Subject: Re: [asterisk-users] Max how many users in sip.conf mtha...@gmail.com wrote: later i figured out the following. my sip.conf was 2.2Mega Bytes size when populated with 50k users.

Re: [asterisk-users] Max how many users in sip.conf
It is limited by the amount of memory available to your computer. Each user takes up a chunk of available memory. Let's say for arguments sake that the amount is 4kb (using top might give you a better idea of the real usage and what you're starting with). 50K users at 4kb apiece would use 200mb and most smaller servers start with 2gb or (much) less available. If you had 1gb of memory, a 200mb load with everything else would be pretty taxing.
