[asterisk-biz] Asterisk Performance Results

[Jim Dalton]

We recently performed an indepth performance test on Asterisk V1.4.11
configured as a SIP B2BUA.

Asterisk was running on a server with two Xeon 5140, dual core, 2.33 GHz
CPUs and 4 GB of RAM.

We found that an Asterisk B2BUA on this hardware can manage 1500
simultaneous calls with no transcoding and 400 simultaneous calls with G.711
to G.729 transcoding.

A summary of the test is available at
