Hi,
I wonder if anyone would be able to advise please:
When I build FreeSWITCH on yum updated CentOS 5.4, I get a warning when I start FreeSWITCH that
"Abnormally large timer gap detected"
"Do you have your kernel timer set to greater than 1kHz? You may experience audio problems".
I get no such warning if I build on CentOS 5.3, and the test timings it measures on starting FreeSWITCH do look lower. All I was doing to upgrade to Centos5.4 was a yum update on the 5.3 build.
I guess the warning comes from here: http://fisheye.freeswitch.org/browse/~raw,r=16409/FreeSWITCH/src/switch_time.c
This is all on pretty low spec hardware - a couple of different Dell optiplex p4's I use for testing.
Does anyone happen to know if I should just stick to Cent)S 5.3, or use 5.4 and not worry about the warnings, or if there is something I can do to fix the problem it is warning about. Perhaps it is just that I shouldn't use such crummy hardware?!
Many thanks in advance
Bruce
