What value do you look at with top? (Especially with multiple 
processor/core servers.) I have an old 1.2.7 server with "custom features" 
hacked in that leaks memory. We know audio quality goes to hell when 
Asterisk hoards more than 100mb.

How do you quantify "choppy?" Anybody volunteer to write "app-MOS?"

Thanks in advance,
