[Freeswitch-users] high latency

[David Burgess]

Greetings,

I'm new to freeswitch, just playing with it in a home/small office at
present. Overall I've been really impressed with it.

One issue we've noticed is a pronounced latency on some or perhaps all
calls over roughly 500 seconds in duration. The latency is
approximately 3 seconds or more round trip. I tried setting
jitterbuffer_msec=20 but it has not prevented the problem. The call
quality is otherwise good with no noticeable choppiness or jitter.
Other local network traffic appears to be irrelevant, as in the
latency seems to occur even when the LAN is idle or experiencing only
sporadic bursts of activity, like typical browsing.

I read the FAQ and searched jitter, lag and latency in the wiki and
list archive but didn't come up with anything. Is this a known issue?
Could it be that the problem is specific to my platform? I'm running
the freeswitch package on pfsense (FreeBSD-based) and nobody in the
pfsense forums seems to know the cause or solution, although others
have reported the same issue.

Much thanks for your input,
