xml_curl leaves much to be desired. For one, when you're dealing with a lot of traffic, it gets pretty slow.

Come up with something that accomplishes these goals:

- Fast
- Redundant
- High Availability
- No single point of failure
- Simple as can be

It's a tall order and requires a ton of skills and some excellent planning. It is not for the faint of heart. I've been dealing with this problem for many months, and I still really don't have a solution. I've got other goals besides these, but I'd start with that list.

Yes, I agree there.

If you empty out your dialplan and only use curl, then FS hardly has to
do anything to route the call, it just waits for a response and then
executes the little snippet that comes back.  Make your web script
really efficient and have it send back a list of dialplan instructions.

It's still a good idea to have a bit of XML dialplan locally to handle
emergency routing, ie. 911 and 611 if possible.  That way, if something
happens to your web servers, people can at least call for help, and
maybe still call you to complain about it.  Then again, maybe you don't
want that :-)
