you only have to send a query to the list once... Someone will eventually respond if they know the answer So now... If you have calls coming into FS via FlowRoute, there is no difference related to resources based on if its a landline or a cellphone, there could be differences based on what codec is actually chosen (ie: G711 is less costly in CPU performance then G729 or other compressed codecs) Flowroute is not doing the conferencing, either your freeswitch box is, or a local phone is doing the conference... If you are using mod_conference there is cpu and ram usage for each call.. How much depends on various settings etc... Of course there is a bandwidth component for each call... I would suggest getting the FreeSWITCH book, and start there, and probably vising http://www.siptutorial.net/ and get a basic understanding of how VoIP works in general On 8/3/13 5:48 PM, "Mahendra Bhegade" <bhegades@gmail.com> wrote:

Hi,

I am using flowroute to access incoming calls and then conference additional phones using flowroute SIP gateway.

I would like to understand what resources are being used on the server that is hosting the conference calls.

Now if flowroute is handling all the call what resources are being consumed on the freeswitch server.

CPU, bandwidth, what else ?

If these are cellphone versus landlines does it make any difference ?

Please share some insight.
