we're talking 400 calls with alaw, meaning 80kbps full duplex * 2 *  
400 == 64Mbps. not a lot. but 50 packets per second per direction is  
40k packets per second and quite a lot of syscalls. so if we could  
mmap them all and do the udp parsing in a small state machine, we  
could possibly gain a whole lot
