I don't think your issue is the VIA CPU but the I/O of your flash
drive. Voicemail is what I suspect being the I/O bottleneck.

Thanks,

Thanks for your help.

I will try a faster box. Are VIA CPUs known to cause problems?

So it doesn't happen with Local->PSTN calls (the type you can easily
test remotely if we assume there's no voip access).

Run top along with the tool that indicated the high I/O and see what
is going on. Are you doing G729 or anything like that?

Thanks,

vmstat will probably provide more useful data (vmstat 1 etc. for a
continous run).

Depends on the phone.

On many devices you can setup buttons to call a url. Thats what I did.

Hi,
I am using g711a everywhere.

I checked on a completely idle system (no calls at all) and idle CPU is
dropping from 100% to 0% more than once per minute.

Hi its me again.

Here is the output of zttest of a completely idle system (no calls).
Acoording to some documents those values do not seem to be good.

The IRQ of my zaptel card is shared with other devices. But not sure if
this causes a problem.

Run top along with the tool that indicated the high I/O and see what
is going on. Are you doing G729 or anything like that?

vmstat will probably provide more useful data (vmstat 1 etc. for a
continous run).

Depends on the phone.

On many devices you can setup buttons to call a url. Thats what I did.

Ah, yes. Would be a good thing to implement here. Then you can do
anything, like a support ticket etc.

Cheers.

Hi,
I am using g711a everywhere.

I checked on a completely idle system (no calls at all) and idle CPU is
dropping from 100% to 0% more than once per minute.

If you run top, and the idle goes to 0% is it the IRQ that is using the
other 100%?

If so, what echo canceller are you using?

Hello,
this is the case. Idle goes to 0% and IRQ goes to 100%.

I have a Junghanns ISDN card (bristuff) card. And I guess it is using
that Echo Canceler.

Best regards,
Loic Didelot.
