https://blog.evaristesys.com/2016/02/15/tuning-kamailio-for-high-throughput-and-performance/ Child processes will make a big difference, especially in your scenario #1, where you're waiting on outside services. But it's possible you've just run into a fundamental throughput limit of your environment, and if you have, I would not take the advice to increase receive queue depth. -- Alex > On Mar 22, 2024, at 4:03 PM, Ilie Soltanici <iliusha...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Totally agree with Alex here. > > On Fri 22 Mar 2024, 19:24 Alex Balashov via sr-users, > <sr-users@lists.kamailio.org> wrote: > I don't know that I would do that.
