Ubuntu has a separate -server kernel variant. From what I understand,

using it is not a good idea on a Asterisk system, as it is intended to

an application such as a file server, optimized for higher throughput.



Asterisk is closer to a desktop multimedia program, which prefers low

latency to high throughput.



Is that recommendation still valid?

The "purpose" of the distro sets the timer.  I am sure there is a workaround for server to use an Asterisk friendly kernel timer.

Thanks,
