I like the idea behind this patch.  This could be a really cool optimization!  Below are my comments after making my first pass on the code.  Most of the comments have to do with the way the ao2 objects and containers work.  Once we get some of that worked out I'll take a deeper look at this.

    It should not be necessary to ref the dialog before removing it from the dialogs container.  Was this done because you saw a crash here? if so there is something else going on that needs to be investigated.

    What is lockowner and lockdialoglist for here?

<https://reviewboard.asterisk.org/r/917/#comment5872>

    The same thing applies here to what I said about the dialog_unlink_needdestroy function.  It should not be necessary to ref the dialog before unlinking it.

    Are we sure this function will never get called twice on the same dialog?  If this does happen i think the dialog will be linked twice into the container.



branches/1.6.2/channels/chan_sip.c
<https://reviewboard.asterisk.org/r/917/#comment5874>

    What happens on a re-invite.  Will the dialog pointer be linked into this container twice?



branches/1.6.2/channels/chan_sip.c
<https://reviewboard.asterisk.org/r/917/#comment5875>

    I don't understand the OBJ_UNLINK flags here.  I understand this is the way the code was before your changes, but the callback never actually unlinks any of the dialogs by returning CMP_MATCH.



branches/1.6.2/channels/chan_sip.c
<https://reviewboard.asterisk.org/r/917/#comment5869>

    What do we gain by running this sooner than 1000ms?  If a Request or Response comes in, or some other event that requires the do_monitor loop it is supposed to break out early from this wait.
