Hi,

We have been running a kannel service for about a week now.  The setup is:
- single server
 + 2Gb RAM
 + Intel(R) Xeon(TM) CPU 3.20GHz
 + SCSI RAID1
- 2 kannels
 + each of them has a bearerbox and a wapbox
 + each kannel instance gets different users based on the users IP address
 + both kannels connects to a single local squid proxy
- Standard FC4 installation
- Doing about 29tps (sent) at peak times
- Doing about 20tps (received) at peak times

If you take a look at the attached graphs, you will see the message
rates that it is running at.  The graphs are generated from the admin
interface.

My question is this: how does the load (normal Linux load*100) compare
to systems that you are running?
Do you have any tips for reducing the load?
Should we be worried about the load as it stands now?

Here is also a snapshot from top:
