      Hi!
I tried to test openser's call setup performance.
Scenario: INVITE - 180 - 200
Server: 2 x P3 1266MHz
listen=UDP:...
children=100
I used SIPP for testing.
1. Although the config is rather simple (no DNS, no DB, no lookup) I 
can't get more than 700 INVITE transactions per second. Shouldn't this 
be higher (AFAIK ser powers the whole bay area on a handheld PC)?
2. With children = 100, I can see more than 200 threads and lots of unix 
sockets opened, although no DB is used. Why?
3. openser core dumps when children=200
regards
klaus
