its a matter of interrupts on the PCI bus, the zap cards generate a 1000
per second ... how many PCI busses do you have for the 20 pci slots ... =20

we've been able to get upto 5 zap cards per bus with not many issues,
using little kernel tuning, like IO-APIC etc ...

also, if you want to do that many FXO ports, its better to do the TDM04,=20
since they only use one interrupt per 4 ports

ofcourse if you want to use the el-cheapo X100P knockoffs, then you're on=
=20
your own ...
