[Asterisk-Users] mpg123 or asterisk

[Steve Totaro]

In my very limited testing of native, each channel was receiving a 
different stream (each caller heard something different).  Under a high 
volume of calls, which is going to hurt performance more?  Transcoding 
MP3s but sending a single stream or separate streams per call under 
native? 

When I say high, I mean 1,000+ calls.

Thanks,
Steve
