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... 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
OK - I've realised I do get the same warning with CentOS 5.3, it just goes past more quickly so I didn't see it. Maybe it is just the hardware .... On 28 February 2010 15:37, Bruce Hopkins <jbrucehopkins@gmail.com> wrote:

we are still wary about 5.3 due to bugs reported in libc. What number does it say it detected for the gap? On Sun, Feb 28, 2010 at 12:03 PM, Bruce Hopkins <jbrucehopkins@gmail.com>wrote:

Hi Anthony, Many, many apologies to take so long to reply - I failed to notice your response. Sorry ! It seems to be variable. Most times (on CentOS 5.3) when I start FS it tells me it is around 1995ms. Occasionally it is lower (sub 1000ms) and then does not give a warning.

FS now tries to determine how accurate the timing is by doing some tests with 1ms sleeps. Most 64 bit CentOS box I have seen can easily calibrate. If you are having that error alot but the calls still sound ok, it's safe to ignore it. you can also start FS with -nocal to skip this test. Also make sure you do not have any other cpu-intensive application on your box possibly competing for resources. On Wed, Mar 10, 2010 at 3:42 AM, Tihomir Culjaga <tculjaga@gmail.com> wrote:

OK, can you decode what this means exactly? I'd be happy to write something up to reference users to, but I don't really know what it means. It is a a quad-core 2.8GHz running CentOS 5.3 64-bit. It looks like it calculated 150, but is that good, bad, indifferent? I've tried to google it, but without really knowing what it is I am looking for, I am not getting good results. 2010-03-10 14:48:37.960041 [CONSOLE] switch_time.c:1021 Calibrating timer, please

This tells you the calculated average discrepancy of the timing is 150 microseconds (millisecond/1000), that I believe is good. (hope this explanation is true ;) )

it means that it has detected a 150 microsecond offset. It tries originally to sleep 1000 microseconds (1 millisecond) in a loop. It times how long the sleep lasted and compares how long it really took vs how long it was asked to sleep. then it slowly decreases by 50 and tries again until it gets within 2 microseconds of the goal. in your case of 150, it means if you subtract 150 from the total number of microseconds from all the sleeps they will be more accurate.

OK, can you decode what this means exactly? I’d be happy to write something up to reference users to, but I don’t really know what it means. It is a a quad-core 2.8GHz running CentOS 5.3 64-bit. It looks like it calculated 150, but is that good, bad, indifferent? I’ve tried to google it, but without really knowing what it is I am looking for, I am not getting good results.
This tells you the calculated average discrepancy of the timing is 150 microseconds (millisecond/1000), that I believe is good. (hope this explanation is true ;) )

Many thanks for the info. I was using a fairly crummy 32 bit box with no PSTN card installed. There was no degredation of the audio immediately apparent. Bests Bruce On 10 March 2010 16:25, Anthony Minessale <anthony.minessale@gmail.com>wrote:
FS now tries to determine how accurate the timing is by doing some tests with 1ms sleeps. Most 64 bit CentOS box I have seen can easily calibrate. If you are having that error alot but the calls still sound ok, it's safe to ignore it. you can also start FS with -nocal to skip this test.
Also make sure you do not have any other cpu-intensive application on your box possibly competing for resources.

Hi Anthony,
Many, many apologies to take so long to reply - I failed to notice your response. Sorry !
It seems to be variable. Most times (on CentOS 5.3) when I start FS it tells me it is around 1995ms. Occasionally it is lower (sub 1000ms) and then does not give a warning.
Best wishes Bruce

we are still wary about 5.3 due to bugs reported in libc. What number does it say it detected for the gap?

OK - I've realised I do get the same warning with CentOS 5.3, it just goes past more quickly so I didn't see it. Maybe it is just the hardware ....

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<http://fisheye.freeswitch.org/browse/%7Eraw,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

Right, this happens on 32bit Centos (at least in my case) only... on 64bit is is ok ... and no complains at all :) misery solved for me.... thx. T.
