I would be interested in the numbers you would get with bypass_media=true instead of proxy_media=true and with neither setting set as well. Also, make sure your logging level is low and try putting the db dir on a ram disk. Thanks for the info. As tony said, there are clearly some bottlenecks in the sofia library, but if you really need to pass media, your test is not very accurate for real life, and the results are likely not very useful to you. You should use a more realistic length of call. In bypass media I would suspect that length of call matters very little. In proxy media or normal mode, the performance of the box is much more of a calculation on number of calls than cps as a result of the context switching from having to move the media and you will see that this plays a much more significant role on realistic call lengths (unless you really have lots of 1/2 second calls). Some other tips. While this extension may be trivial, what else is there in your dialplan context? Anything above that extension could cause a significant impact. Do you have any of the presence features enabled? These do significantly impact call handling performance even if your sipp scenarios do not send any of those packets.<div><br></div><div>Mike<br><div><br></div><div><br><div><div>On Jan 30, 2010, at 11:57 AM, Anthony Minessale wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><blockquote type="cite">Also keep in mind that the industry standard is 50 which is the capacity to take over for the real standard of 25 in a fail-over scenario.
