Nikos, Mohammed Many thanks for the information, that was just what I was after.
We're going for a new database on an existing instance of SQL Server running on separate hardware. I'm thinking that we might need to beef-up the virtual hardware of the Kannel Ubuntu machine. I'll try to remember to post about progress in a little while. On a connected matter, what indexes might be useful on the dlr table? I'm guessing the smsc-field as that would appear to contain the foreign id as generated by the SMSC. Regards Richard PS, Sorry Nikos, my last reply was intended to be to the list, not just to you. We've changed company name, and email addresses, so the list rejected my email and it's all gone downhill since then... -----Original Message----- From: Nikos Balkanas [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: 01 June 2011 00:46 To: Mohammed Saleem; Richard Crawshaw Cc: [email protected] Subject: Re: Pointers for best DLR performance Not quite. Benchmarks with fakesmpp using a native middle-end Solaris 10 (64bit) have shown ~750 MT/s when using internal DLRs and ~450 MT/s when using mysql. You can serach the email archives for the detailed benchmarks. Using a visrtual machine is always a bad choice if you seek performance. If you must have kannel on such a machine, better use a different one for the DB, especially if you are using DB for DLR processing.
