Goal: To measure the media thruput performance of the symmitron which
is the core performance sensitive component of sipxbridge.


Description

Experiments were performed with 100 bidrectional streams pushing data through
the symmitron.  I allocated 50 bridges in the symmitron.  This would
correspond to 50 concurrent phone calls with bidrectional media which
is our desired operating point.
Each bridge had a pair of Syms Each sym received data from a sender
and forwarded it to the other side.
Measurements were made over 1000 packets. I performed the experiments
on my laptop ( dual core 2 ghz intel processor ).
The symmitron ran in the same process as the sender and receiver.


sender  ---->|                |---> receiver
                       |   bridge |
receiver<----|                |<--- sender


Measurements
------------
Time between packets    Root Mean Square Jitter value (measured at receiver)

10 ms.                  PACKET LOSS occured.

20 ms.                  6.17 ms. ( 0 packet loss )

40 ms.                  1.9 ms.  ( 0 packet loss )

80 ms.                  1.15 ms. ( 0 packet loss )

160 ms.                 1.10 ms.  ( 0 packet loss )


Conclusion
---------

The bridge can easily perform at the desired design point of 50 concurrent
calls.

I do not foresee any performance issue with SIP signaling either. On
an unloaded machine, the stack performs at 100 CAPS for dialog
stateful operation.
