Hello Vic,

SIP tracing may be add a significant load on the DB (and on opensips itself - as it is doing blocking DB ops) as for each message it has to do 2 insert queries - and for a minimal call you around 10 inserts.

The idea is to minimize the traffic you trace (trace only what you need, not all traffic) and to optimize the dumping to DB: 1) use the multi-insert option (see query_buffer_size - http://www.opensips.org/Resources/DocsCoreFcn19#toc71) 2) consider using the flatstore DB engine (which is a write-only very fast engine to write to files) 3) consider doing the DB ops on a different opensips instance than the one handling the traffic (active opensips is just packing data and another one is dumping into DB) - see Homer with sip_trace and sip_capture modules.

How much additional load is added when siptrace is turned on, but the database server is different. Meaning I have a separate DB just for doing sip traces.
