My experience has shown that using a dedicated registrar for large 
installs is more effective;  it doesn't tie up resources on the Asterisk 
box with all those registration refreshes, for one.  A product built to 
be a high-throughput standalone registrar will handle the concurrency 
requirements and perform better.
