[Asterisk-Users] Alternatives to SpanDSP??

[Steve Underwood]

Hi Andrew,

If you can catch one of these events, and get a traceback of the stack, 
I will take a look. This is not happening to most users, so it must be 
some specific combination of things on your machine. I have reports of 
high volume faxing running for extended periods from some users.

Regards,
Steve
