[asterisk-ss7] Re: chan_ss7 experience and question.

[Matthew Fredrickson]

In my testing of libss7 with chan_ss7, I found that chan_ss7 seemed to 
exhibit higher numbers of these type of errors when the system was 
under load.  It seemed like the thread servicing the zap channel wasn't 
able to keep up for whatever reason.
