I don't want to be contradictory here, but I have many small sites running
on 2gb memory, and 0 swap used in 4-8 months of running that way.  These
sites have 5-40 phones on them and they are 100% reliable for me.  I'm sure
there is a tipping point to where 2 gb is not enough, but I've not seen it
in this size range of a small customer.  I use this particular hardware
because of its form factor - small, wall mountable.  It replaces any small
Key system nicely, taking up about 6" x 6" on the wall.

 

There was a note from one of the Dev's in the last 60 days or so that said
that 4.6 was actually looking to require less memory, so this should help to
improve things even more.

 

Now, Centos 6 might be a completely different ball game, but from what I
have read, it's memory use is not that much greater.  I'm hoping the savings
from 4.6 will at least offset any new requirements.

 

I will state - these are very straightforward installs, sipbridge,
voicemail, hunt groups, auto attendants, but no ACD.  They work flawlessly
under these configuration parameters with Polycom and Cisco phones, and
Patton and Audiocodes gateways.   I have no problem recommending them.

 

If I'm missing any new facts related to 4.6 or CENTOS 6, I'd love to hear
them.

I think you need at least 4GB ram installed on any system. There s no
mystery here, just a lack of resources.

When you start using swap on ANY system, performance suffers.

Install more ram and you will see an immediate improvement.

Shouldn't it be using more of the swap?

it sounds as though it is a resource issue.

 

look at top. are you using any swap? look in the registration logs for
"fake" registration attempts (hint: look at the log sizes for the previous
several days, if there is a larger file, then LOOK at that file). If these
are FAKE registrations (script or dos attack), address this at your
firewall.

I Checked all of the messages I have received from this group, and I found a
thread about this issue, and it says to check the logs

 

Is this the only option?

If it is, what log do I check, and what am I looking for?

 

This has happened twice on this system, rebooting it fixes the problem

 

Thank you,
