An additional question:
If I run script,to parse ~ 2000 phone numbers (from database or file) and
send via kannel in about 2-3 seconds or maybe faster, does it meen,  that I
send more then 200 msgs/s? :-) What will happen? Tomorow I will do this. I
have alredy tested with ~ 450 msgs. It took some minutes till last msg was
sent. but if there is store limit ~ 1000 msgs, other 1000 msgs will not be
sent anymore? Then maybe I must make sleep in script for every 100 msgs ~ 1
minute or something like that?

Hello,

I don't know if there's an official benchmark (haven't been to the website
in a long time).  By just sending "Hello, world" to fakesmsc at variable
rates, here's what I've found:

Max messages straight through without queueing them:
44 msgs/sec
Higher than that, Kannel (is it the bearerbox or the
smsbox?) starts queueing them and the store size keeps on growing.  
Invoking the URL http://localhost/sendsms at a rate of 200 msgs/s I've grown
my store until it contained about 1000 msgs, and then I stopped sending
more.  The store got purged, also at a rate of about 44 msgs/sec until it
was empty again.

That was just to see if the software can handle it. 
Running RedHat 9 on a 2 GHz Pentium 4 laptop.

But in actual fact the SMSCs I've worked with only handle about 17-20
msgs/sec over a TCP/IP connection, using SMPP or a similar TCP/IP protocol.

Anyone alse tried to stress-test Kannel?

Why would you want to handle 100, 150 or 200 sms/sec in the first place?
