Asterisk is an application requiring hard realtime performance.  Pretty much 
any telephony application is.  Running *anything* in addition to asterisk is 
just asking for trouble.

Actually I would be curious to see if asterisk performs better in a 
soft-realtime environment (i.e. what's actually easily possible with 
commodity PC hardware).
