ethtool - make sure the interfaces are set correctly - look for 'Speed: 
1000Mb/s' and 'Duplex: Full'

ifconfig - look at the error counters

iftop - how many bits are you pushing in each direction

I've got a 7 year old Xeon box with 2GB running Asterisk 1.2 that handles 
300 channels just fine. I suspect a modern box with a modern Asterisk 
could do that in 'sleep mode.'
