[Asterisk-video] CPU Utilization of H.264 Conference with MCU

[Kiran N]

Hi -,


I am trying to use 2X2 conference with H.264 Codec with CIF format. With a single person in the conference i could see that the CPU utilization has gone to 25% and when the second fellow joins, it went up to 50%. I could see that H.264 encoder (x264 lib) is the one responsible for most of the CPU utilization. 

Does this mean that I would not be able to run more that 2-3 conferences (say 2X2) active on a system? Is there any way, we can reduce the CPU usage? 
Any help in this regard will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks and Regards,
Kiran
