FS performance under windows
Hi folk, First of all, thank you for FS - really strong project. I have already asked this once in other thread but didn't got any answer. So, I'll try to re-ask. We are playing currently with FS under Windows 2008 64bit. So far there are some issues but I hope we'll solve it in nearest future. After FS will be configured correctly we plan to play with performance things on FS. The question is: Does it makes any sense to try to setup FS under Win for a same performance level possible under Linux (e.g. CentOs)? Or it's just wasting of time? An additional question is: Are there any important and well know issues during migration from Win to Lin. Or it is just like copying of all configs into Linux installation? Thank you -- Best regards, Dmitry Kadantsev
If you want to try FS on Windows only for feature testing etc. then its okay, however for production deployments (that includes load testing) i strongly recommend CentOS 5.x. As far as configuration migration is concerned, you don't need to change any configuration files, simply copy them to Linux installation. Thank you.

Do you have any specific notes why production or load testing isn’t recommended on Windows? Or just lack of data?

What is the reason for saying this? Perhaps the effort of the development group of FS has been wasted trying to support Windows as a platform for production systems?

I know people that have deployed on windows... not a huge problem just hasn't been load tested like linux... we don't have the resources or time to load test every single platform, tune and tweak it. The community can help out with this area a lot. /b On Sep 2, 2009, at 8:01 AM, Diego Toro wrote:

As far as we'll solve all FS configuration issues I think we'll make some tests on Windows platform and will share results with community. Please if someone has an opportunity to test FS on modern windows server editions (32/64 bit) - submit your test results too. It is interesting to put together some statistic. -- Best regards, Dmitry Kadantsev http://www.doxwox.com - Best web meeting and online collaboration tool.

I'm planning to deploy on windows a small call center (around 50 people) and willing to help anyhow. I will be able to test on machines mounting windows 2003 server. Is there a standard test that could be employed to correctly benchmark the results? On Wed, Sep 2, 2009 at 15:50, Brian West <brian@freeswitch.org> wrote:

I have a production application where I use FS as part of small, custom ACD solution, with about 80 incoming DIDs and 4 agent positions. It's been deployed for about 4 months now, and was in beta long before that... So far, excellent perfomrance on Windows 2003 server, 32-bit, with 4GB of memory. It's certainly not a heavy load, but it proves the stabiliy and versitility of the platform. Brian said it best -- there is just not many of us on Windows. However, I DEEPLY appreciate the support of the FS dev team, and hope they will continue to support Windows. BTW, if I were to build a high-volume app, I'd do it on CentOS also.

Have you gotten past the problems with pthread-win32 on 64 bit? you will need the trunk version of that library if not because the released version has problems with 64bit. There are some other simple compilation problems I assume you may have already got past? If not see http://jira.freeswitch.org/browse/FSBUILD-147 for a reference. That bug is basically waiting for pthread-win32 to release their next version. What other kinds of problems are you having? Dmitry Kadantsev wrote:
