[Freeswitch-users] FreeSWITCH Question

Just playing along with the whole "we can't get real hardware" idea:

 - Try a 32-bit build, this may decrease memory usage significantly.
 - You didn't mention how the memory is actually used (is that 85% physically mapped?). Each thread gets a 240K (I think) allocation by default. You might try reducing that, but you'll need to test it and make sure you don't start overflowing.

As much as I disagree with the "ten-thousand-threads" model, FS isn't going to change it anytime soon (and hey, it's working). And, I am at a loss as to what business model has so many calls, and can't afford a $500 server. So, just buy a server and move on.

It is not so much the cps but the concurrent calls.

I am looking at maintaining a 30 cps with a 5 min. avg. call length which results in a sustained 9000 concurrent calls.

This results in 85% mem. usage on a 4 GB machine, However CPU is at 25% (total) on a dual core with hyper threading.

Current hardware does not support increase memory.

I am striving for about 75% cpu (appox. 90 cps).

Do you have such a large cps/concurrent volume that you're actually seeing a performance hit?

I am using FreeSWITCH in media bypass mode to decrease memory and cpu usage.

I notice that mod_sofia creates threads for each call leg to maintain session context.

Do you know of a way to configure FreeSWITCH to use a table to maintain the context when in media bypass mode to reduce the number of threads?

I am hoping that this will speed things up by reducing thread context switching and reduce memory usage by decreasing memory allocation for each thread.

Thanks for the help,
Jason
