[Freeswitch-users] Memory using

[Javier Galaz Jeria]

Hello all

I'm a new user of freeswitch and I've a few questions,

1. I've searched the mail list and some forums about the switch "waste" and I 
   haven't found out what it does and how it does it. Anyone care to explain a
   little bit about it? The only thing that I've found is that it consumes more
   memory but in my tests [1] it doesn't change that much.

2. Do any of you guys have a rough estimate of what each call memory footprint
   should be?

3. About the ulimit -s 240, I've read that it limits the stack size, but I'm at
   a lost point as how to pick a suitable value. What is the criteria?

4. Are the tests that I've done [1] reasonable?

I'm trying to know this things because I'm planning to use FreeSWITCH on a
resource limited hardware.

Best Regards

Javier
