Is it still recommended to use custom 1000HZ kernels for FS servers or can we go tickless now? Any difference if FS is installed in baremetal vs virtualized? Thanks, François.
I can not answer about the tickles kernel, but bare metal is always preferred to maximize performance of FreeSWITCH. Some users have had good results with virtual machines, others have had not so good results. --- Bote FreeSWITCH Docs Janitor http://freeswitch.org/confluence

Probable hardware line cards will work unstable in virtual environment. On Tue, Mar 15, 2016, 03:45 Bote Man <bote_radio@botecomm.com> wrote:

FreeSWITCH relies heavily on timers, so every media playback or conference will be (probably severely) distracted if your kernel ticks are not frequent enough. In regards to virtualization, the virtualization itself is not too bad, but the problem is, that with most of hosting offers you get a best-effort service, sharing the CPU power with other unknown parties. So, you can't really say how many simultaneous calls your host can handle. By the way, scaleway.com has just published a new offering for physical hosting.

I guess the answer is not that simple so I'll have to give it a try (tickless) and report! On 2016-03-14 14:55, François wrote:

You do not need 1000hz kernel anymore since like 2010 when they actually made the tickless one work right. We now have timerfd to rely on for voip timing. On Tue, Mar 15, 2016 at 10:46 AM, François <fdelawarde@wirelessmundi.com> wrote:
