</div></div>Hi All,<br>
I'm using freeswitch in production environment running on ESXi . I have<br>
no issues with voice /probably because simply i leave the media to flow<br>
between endpoints/ . Performance is amazing and i'd recommend this setup<br>
to everybody.<br>
it is important though when you set your VM on ESXi to set in advance<br>
the number of CPUs. Changing # of CPUs later might affect your<br>
performance. My recommendation is NOT to use VMWARE server on top of<br>
other OS. ESXi as hipervisor is linux in its core that provides you<br>
with enough access to the HW and nothing more so the overhead is as<br>
minimal as possible /while this is not the case fro VMware server - it<br>
needs underlaying OS and so on/.<br>
I hope this info helps.<br>
If anybody is interested i'd be glad to share me experience on his matter.<br>
Best Regards<br>
