[Freeswitch-users] FreeSwitch on a VM?

[S. Scott]

There are some good/better/best Virtual engine config than others.
And your milage may vary, but keys to allow for the highest performing
fs-as-guest ... Config the fs-guest with a CPU affinity such that it
is NEVER without two or more cores,,, if really, really necessary the
vm engine may be config'ed to allowed swap of fs-guest for memory
pressures but NOT cores,,,  plus the network interfaces seen by
fs-guest should be pass-thru and the real hardware NICs be virtual
capable.  (i've seen vm cause issues with non pass thru and 20 ms
framing rates under load.)
