[Asterisk-Users] I guess my server capacity is ok

[Steve Totaro]

All I know is that it is very processor intensive and either not using 
it or just passing it through is your best bet.  I will be working alot 
with G729 in the near future and will post my findings but until then I 
am just relying on the dimensioning page on the wiki.

Thanks,
Steve Totaro
