[Asterisk-Users] Experience with IBM X346 machines and Sangoma

[Cosmin Prund]

I get the same thing with a basic AAH (2.8 or whatever the latest is at 
the time of this writing). I consider the thing an pretty basic system 
running nothing but Asterisk yet I get the same kind of spikes once 
every 10 seconds (running vmstat 1 10000). My system is a cheap Sepron 
2800+ on a ASUS MB with nVidia3 chipset. I'd love to know what's that 
all about...

My sample below. As you can see I mostly have 100% idle and there are 
spikes :-)
