I think you're being too kind to 1.2.x. It has numerous problems, most
especially with locking in chan_sip. 1.4.x is a HUGE improvement.

Who uses chan_sip? Long live IAX! Smile

But seriously, several of my clients use SIP exclusively, passing tens
of thousand of calls a day on Asterisk 1.2.X with no issues. I have
noticed that the load is slightly lower for SIP-only in 1.4, but I
have not noticed any stability issues revolving around SIP on 1.2.X.

Have you tried disabling highpriority=yes in asterisk.conf?

No hung calls? Our 1.2.x customer PBX's are drowning in "channel.c:
Avoided deadlock for '0x91dbee8', 9 retries!". Of course you can just
ignore the hung calls if you want, but they mess up hint state and
prevent graceful restarts. 1.4.x fixes it.

I will say that we did notice some SIP issues with older 1.2 releases,
but on the current 1.2.24+ releases we really haven't had many
problems, and we do not have hung channels. I should mention that most
of these installations have all phones on a LAN and almost none of the
calls are native SIP-bridged since they go through meetme rooms which
might account for why we do not see problems like this.

As for 1.4.X we are moving closer to putting a live production machine
on it, just a few more weeks of testing like we have had for the last
month, and I should be convinced of it's stability.

You hit the nail on the head when you said "

month"

Some of the code you see makes you think the "testing" was slightly more than a clean compile Smile
