command into a macro that polls via a “core show channels” and only
dials when the count is below X. Even using a “slow language”
like PHP or PERL, an AGI call/return would not add as much time to the dial
process as PSTN delay does.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

a way to limit the number of simultaneous outbound SIP calls made by Asterisk?
We've tried using the 'Asterisk sip call-limit' parameter but that doesn't seem
