[Freeswitch-users] FS stress test issue

Thu Jun 20 10:07:53 MSD 2013

Doubled it so quick? Does that mean its a virtual or real box?
The distro, the hardware, the speed of the network, the configuration, the
filesystem all matter in performance.
There is no mention to what the test is or what the frequency of calls is
etc.  Short duration calls hurt more than long etc.

This is part of why we tend to shy away from load testing questions.
