Nice preliminary results! But to be fair, the test really needs to run across the network. The interrupt load of actual packets on the wire makes a (slight, but not negligible) difference then when running packets across the loop-back interface. So you'll need two machines. One trick I do when running this type of load test is to make a "real" call during the load test, and listen. Often I have the other side playing a continous tone, which makes it really easy to hear audio irregularities. If the tone is clean, the stats will be clean as well. Sometimes the stats don't quite reflect short trouble spots--but your ears will. Also, what is the cpu loading during the test? Run "vmstat 30" and track the context switching and idle times. Those are good indicators of CPU load over a long period. --Woof! _______________________________________________ sipx-dev mailing list [email protected] List Archive: http://list.sipfoundry.org/archive/sipx-dev Unsubscribe: http://list.sipfoundry.org/mailman/listinfo/sipx-dev
