I heard the great virtues of freeswitch. Lower memory, faster processes, easy<br>
configuration.<br>
<br>
Kiwi, I am sure that may be the case in your enterprise systems but in a home<br>
system my experience was less than barely acceptable.<br>
<br>
Could it be that I'm doing something wrong?<br>
I followed the instructions from here (including compiling the sounds):<br>
<a href="http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Installation_Guide" target="_blank">http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Installation_Guide</a><br>
<br>
My Hardware: PIII 400 Mhz with 256 MB RAM, old slow HDD. This is my test<br>
system.<br>
Once comfortable I'm planning to run DD-wrt, tomato or OpenWrt in a router which<br>
I expect will be even less powerful.<br>
PAP2T ATA for one extension,<br>
Ekiga as a soft phone for another extension.<br>
<br>
I'm expecting to get 3 DIDs (two Canadian and one Mexican)<br>
<br>
I installed Asterisk in that box and have been playing with it without<br>
complaints (Other than the by-hand configuration)<br>
<br>
Asterisk:<br>
Installation time, a few seconds using apt-get (older version 1.4)<br>
Updates in seconds using apt-get<br>
idle: CPU 0%, Mem 0.9%<br>
Listening to recording (x600) CPU 2%, Mem 7.4%<br>
Echo test works perfectly almost no lag<br>
Calling between extensions lagged little less than 1/2 second but very clear.<br>
I've found a lot of information and advise.<br>
<br>
Freeswitch<br>
Installation time probably 4 hours to git and compile it. (Current git version )<br>
Updates expected to take a similar amount of time<br>
Idle: CPU 5%, Mem 5%<br>
<br>
Listening to music (x9664) CPU 6% Meme 5.5%<br>
Recordings and music break (as if playing under the water)<br>
Echo tests (x9195 x9196) don't even work<br>
Calling between extensions: Lagged 1/2 second and call not as crisp.<br>
Information and advise is sparse (to say the least)<br>
<br>
And I haven't even tried to install FusionPBX<br>
