[Asterisk-Users] SMP Performance

[mattf]

There is nothing wrong with running Asterisk on SMP. It runs quite well
actually.

I'm assuming you just have the Quad Xeon 450mhz sitting around because you
can't buy them new anymore, so it probably isn't costing you anything to use
it. In which case it isn't a waste. If you are paying more than $800 for it,
save it and just buy a new P4 for less. A $200 machine may not be able to
handle 25 concurrent conversations, and may have some used or sub-standard
parts in it, so that may not be the best choice.

You should be able to have upto 25 channels running on this machine no
problem, How many maximum conversations do you forsee running concurrently
at one time on this system?

Meaning Asterisk won't/can't take advantage of the four CPU's? Or it's
overkill for this scenario?

Send me the quad and i'll send you a 200$ pc to do this job.

The quad is heavily overpowered.
