Vijay,
 
It is a long time since I used SIPp but I do remember having similar issues. My 
memory is that FD_SETSIZE is compiled into the standard library and limits the 
number of FD (file descriptors) you can use. Given a few standard FD your 508 
is about right if each call is using two FD.
 
So the next step is to use multiple processes, each using 1024 FD which will 
take you nearer the ulimit, although you will find that each FD (socket in the 
network interface) consumes kernel resources and the real limit is lower. The 
practical limit was actually different for different kernel builds - eventually 
we came to the conclusion that we were fighting the search time to find the 
socket in the list of sockets. Recent Linux builds may be better, I don't know.
 
I did consider rebuilding the standard library to get a bigger FD_SETSIZE but 
because that is also the array size passed by select(), I would probably have 
to do the kernel as well and gave the idea up.

Subject: [Sipp-users] rtp for only 508 calls









Hi Rob,
 
I am using SIPp v3.4-beta2 with rtp stream.
When I am running calls more than 508 say 600 calls I am seeing rtp for only 
508 calls and not seeing rtp for the rest of the calls.
 
I did set the ulimit to more than 1024 as shown below 
Ulimit –n 99999
But when running the sipp I see the following
 
Warning: open file limit > FD_SETSIZE; limiting max. # of open files to 
FD_SETSIZE = 1024
 
Is there any limit in sipp that’s causing the rtp limited to 508 calls?
 
Regards,
Vijay.
