[asterisk-users] prepaid application recommendation

[Benjamin Jacob]

a2billing so far seems to be quite comprehensive compared to the other 
freeware asterisk-based billing solutions available out there.
We are building our own billing solution(due to the very peculiar 
requirements, one of which is to bill the callee, rather than the 
caller). We are achieving this so far, using AGI scripts, tho we plan to 
migrate to Asterisk Manager APIs soon.
I haven't been able to go thru a2billing in detail(just skimmed thru the 
code n sample dialplans). It seems , if I am not mistaken, in a2billing 
every call invokes an AGI script. So this sounds a lil inefficient, 
where db connections, data structures etc, are created every time.
Any experiences on the performance of both a2billing and AstMan API 
based solutions?
