[Freeswitch-users] time_test on Centos 5.5

[Anthony Minessale]

I think its relative to each kernel version.
The safe bet is to enable the 1000hz timer because 1ms is the least
amount of time FS needs to sleep.
Sometimes when you have a kernel that runs even faster the performance
goes down due to the extra cycles.
All I can say is test everything.

Try it both ways with 1000hz and however the default is and if you
support timerfd try that too.
param enable-softtimer-timerfd set to true in switch.conf.xml and/or
using mod_timer_fd and setting rtp_timer_name=timerfd in your sofia
profile.
