[Asterisk-Users] is a dual 1.5Ghz server better than a single 3Ghz for a 100 Iax users asterisk server

[Adrien Laurent]

Hi everyone,

I'm looking to buy a server that could handle 100 IAX users (g711)-(about
300 registrations) simultaneously.
No zap channels.
My budget is 1000$ us,

Is a fast (3ghz) single server more reliable than a double cpu (like 1ghz) ?
Will asterisk take full profit of two cpus?
Isn't better to get a second cpu to handle system processes (like stat
generation, backups...)? so that the remaining cpu will always be free for
asterisk?
I have also a 500$ deal for a 4 pentium III 500 cpu server.



Thanks,
