Thanks Brian for your answer!

When I started with Asterisk in the past, I wrote all my AGI scripts in 
PHP. And than I saw big latency in call setup and lack of performance.
Thus I try Zend optimizer, eAccelerator and APC too. You are right, all 
of them help much, but I still wasn't satisfied.
After rewritting all of my code to ANSI C, everything change rapidly. 
The same HW could setup nearly twice as much calls per second than with 
PHP and bytecode cache...

I have never heard about fastcgi. I will look at it. Thank you!

May be you are right :-)
I prepare test setup and let we see what happens :-)

Yes, I can. But one of the most important reasons for "switch to 
Freeswitch" is better performance (call setup rate and concurrent calls) 
on existing HW I believe in :-)


Thanks again for useful answers! I setup something in lab and - I'm 
affraid - will ask for other unclear things...

Best regards,
