[Freeswitch-users] freeswitch CPU usage

[Anthony Minessale]

That's easy for you to say because you are using the mailing list not
running it or taking a personal vested interest in maintaining  the
quality of it's content.

We are trying to make sure we help everyone all day long every day constantly.
If you personally had to deal with every time we get this recurring
"load testing" threads, you might understand.

The alternative would be for us to lower our standards and let the
list run away with itself and not care if we actually keep up on it.

What mailing lists are for is anything the owner of the list wants it to be for.
He is welcome to continue to say anything he wants and we are obliged
to reply however we want.
It's a 2 way street.  You seem to suggest that we don't have to right
to have policies on our own community that many people are very
satisfied with only because we do exactly what we want to run our own
community.

You as well are welcome to your opinion which is duly noted.  We still
however, do not like load testing threads.

The individuals here who have volunteered to set up some wiki info
with the proper disclaimers may produce a resource we can send people
to and be done with it.  That is what WIKIs and FAQs are for.....
