I have got gnugk running in production with 350 cocurrent calls on p4 1.8 Ghz with 1MB RAM. <-- Just for the information Yes it eats lot of bandwidth, its not an issue. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Zygmuntowicz Michal" <m.zygmuntowicz@onet.pl> To: <openh323gk-users@lists.sourceforge.net> Sent: Thursday, September 04, 2003 4:51 AM Subject: Re: [Openh323gk-users] performance gnugk in proxy mode > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Hansruedi Born" <born@switch.ch> > Sent: Wednesday, September 03, 2003 3:02 PM > Subject: [Openh323gk-users] performance gnugk in proxy mode > > > > Now I am wondering, has anyone (detailed) performance information about > > GnuGK running as a proxy?

If number of sim. calls is growing, the following comes to my mind: > *) to handle more calls in parallel, you need to increase number of call signal handlers > - you can run into problems with too many threads then; > *) handling many sim. calls in proxy mode with relatively small number of call signal handler > can increase audio delay/jitter; > *) cpu could be the critical resource for many sim. calls; > *) if you are using RAS (registered endpoints sending RRQ,ARQ and other messages) you should > consider gnu gk version 2.2. 2.0 bottleneck could be processing of RAS requests. > *) you should use LARGE_FDSET, otherwise you can hit some limitations on number of sockets being served > (I think this could be the case for more than 100 sim. calls); > > Regards: > --- > Zygmuntowicz Michal > > > ------------------------------------------------------- > This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek > Welcome to geek heaven. > http://thinkgeek.com/sf > _______________________________________________ > List: Openh323gk-users@lists.sourceforge.net > Archive: http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?forum_id=8549 > Homepage: http://www.gnugk.org/ > > ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ List: Openh323gk-users@lists.sourceforge.net Archive: http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?forum_id=8549 Homepage: http://www.gnugk.org/
