I think you are better served to use at least 8gb of ram for essentially any system running 4.4 these days unless you are support a very small number of users. There are 3 things to look for in the perfromance/scalability of a sipx system from a hardware perspective: 1. RAM - sipx uses java extensively, the more java, the better. Once you pass a dozen or so users, 4GB starts to erode over time and you start using SWAP. This leads to other performance issues. 2. CPU - The more L3 cache the faster it is. You WILL notice a tremendous difference in a CPU with 8M or 12M L3 cache than one with 4M. Bootup and service load is tremendously reduced too. 3. Storage - Whether you use 7200 or 10000 or 15000 rpm drives is up to you. HOW the system is used really makes a difference with your drive type/layout. Media services play a huge part in use of the storage system (playing and recording media). If you expect during peak hours to have 15 voicemails being recorded at any given time, you might opt for 10k or 15k rpm drives, etc. -- ===================== Tony Graziano, Manager Telephone: 434.984.8430 sip: mailto:[email protected][/email][/email] Fax: 434.984.8431 Email: mailto:[email protected][/email][/email] _______________________________________________ sipx-users mailing list [email protected] List Archive: http://list.sipfoundry.org/archive/sipx-users/
