Thank you very much, this underpins my consideration. How to tell my Boss :o
Since I wasn't explicit in my reply: we are running rtpengine in vmware. The test I did bare metal vs. vmware was to confirm there is no problem with vmware guests if you limit the amount of traffic per instance and make sure not to overprovision.
Sure rtpengine on bare metal will be better since there is no resource contention, but in my case that would mean multiple dedicated machines in multiple datacentra essentially wasting 90% of resources ideling.
