[Freeswitch-users] Asterisk vs. Freeswitch - added question

[Ken Rice]

Hmmm,

I have done testing with FS and Asterisk in similar configurations on the
same hardware, avg ratio of call handling FreeSwitch:Asterisk is 10:1

Simple test

SIPP -> (FreeSwitch|Asterisk) Run SIPP to bring up channels doing media
playback, then call in with a SIP device to listen  to the quality of the
audio on the call. On the particular hardware we did this testing on,
Asterisk was about to handle about 250 call legs before starting to sound
choppy or it couldn't keep up with the media...  FreeSwitch was able to
handle 2500 sessions and still play media.

Current in production we have a stack of Asterisk based Call Generators for
a specific call center appliction, these call generator are deployed in an
approximate 10:1 ratio to FS with the FS boxes handling Rating and Routing.

Needless to say, need to load test your system? Drop me a line, we can
generate extremely high call volumes (both concurrent and calls/sec)

That being said it would be nice for someone to come along and help out with
a real load testing document. That is duplicatable... Any takes on that(from
the rest of the list)?
