The CPU will show in Linux high usage as soon as you get over 20 calls but you will be able to load the box up to 200 streams, the CPU will show the same high value while the proxy works fine.

Use the rtpgenerator to test after what amount of calls your box will start loosing packets we reckon 70 streams per 1 GHz.

Hi All,

I tested the load of the mediaproxy (ver 1.4.2) and found that it is quite high.

To give an idea, on a P4 2.4GHz machine, 20 sessions give a reading of about 35%, and it will go to almost 90% for 50 sessions.

If we have a system that say can accommodate 10000 users (behind nat) or concurrent calls, that probably means we need about 10000/50=200 machines. That is way too many boxes.

Does anybody has a solution for this?

Thanks for any help available.

Regards,

TC Chan
