Hey Nitesh, Matt Jordan wrote an interesting post on statsd for the
Asterisk blog a while back. If you've got some kind of multiple cluster
enviornment you could use statsd to compile CPU usage, disk I/O usage,
current number of channels/bridges, and all kinds of other useful
statistics that could help you balance the load.
