Child processes will make a big difference, especially in your scenario #1, where
you're waiting on outside services.
But it's possible you've just run into a fundamental throughput limit of your
environment, and if you have, I would not take the advice to increase receive queue
depth.

Totally agree with Alex here.

I don't know that I would do that. If your server isn't coping with the load,
making the kernel receive queue deeper doesn't increase throughput, it just relocates
the queueing -- or rather, adds another layer of queueing.
Squeeze the balloon in one place, it inflates in another.

I assume that you are using udp.
Please increase the length of the udp queue:

Hi all!
I have been doing some performance tests with Kamailio 5.7.4 and SIPp.
The infrastructure is as follows:3 VMs running on VMWare ESXi running:
UAC on 10.20.0.1 with SIPP-> Kamailio on 10.20.0.5 -> UAS on 10.20.0.3
The Kamailio VM has 6 dedicated vCPU of type Intel(R) Xeon(R) Silver 4216 CPU @ 2.10GHz
and, 2 NICs and 4Gb RAM and MariaDB 10.6 as DB Backend., all running on a HP G380 host
with a gazillion CPUs and a googol disk space!
I currently have 3 scripts:
- script #1 stateful with RTJson and simulating requests to routing engine and
accounting
- script #2 stateful but with just a simple routing to UAS, no rules, no DB,
- script #3 stateless with a forward to UAS
With script #3 I can go up to 2000CPS without issues with CPU at 37%! Above that value, I
get retransmissions everywhere.
On both scripts #1 and #2, the limit is 330CPS max after which I get a lot of
retransmissions, while CPU/Core usage on Kamailio server stays below 10%.
So I do not expect this to be a CPU issue.
I could not understand why such (low) results, so I followed this article found at
https://www.kamailio.org/docs/openser-performance-tests/#tm-tests-c
and created exact same scenarios, with kamailio script and SIPP templates available on
the article, hoping for better results.
But I get the same results: between 300 and 330CPS which is far, very far from the
7000CPS found in the article!
I understand that I'm using VMs and probably the tests made for the article, which is
pretty old already, were made on physical servers. Still, I would not expect 95% of lower
performance!
Any clue what could be the issue? I suspect NICs, but....
Any tips anyone could share?
Thanks in advance!
