[Freeswitch-users] Running FS on a heavy loaded VMWare host

It is important to define heavily loaded host...
What is loaded - network, CPU, RAM, I/O?

If you cannot guarantee enough resources for new FS VM probably you will have troubles.

Best advice will be to try it yourself.
One general tip for optimization - do not assign more resource to a VM than it actually needs.

Our 5.0 environment is running under heavy load and I was wondering would FS (configured properly for correct timing) still function properly and able to handle hundreds of concurrent calls on a heavy loaded VMWare host? The FS virtual will also process RTP in default mode. I was hoping if someone had any experience using this setup and could give me some insights on this matter. The FS virtuals will function only as SBC’s, so no complex dial plans, no call recording, no conferencing. Just bridging the incoming call leg with an outgoing one.

In the paper they used Mitel vMCD, but I’m not sure if the software has been optimized to run on VMWare so the tests would come out better than running any other telephony software like FreeSwitch or Asterisk.
