Man, I'm a tired slacker.

If Tarja joins, she's good people. Used to work near her, her husband and her just had some guinea fowl show up and move onto their porch and the fowl are showing no signs of leaving and they can't find the owner. I told her to search her name, she'll find me here

As with everything in Asterisk, this depends greatly upon how you are using the suite. Using only astGUIclients in a corporate environment with telco T1 lines, we have had over 60 concurrent clients operating on a single server with a max of 48 Zap -> SIP conversations on a P4 3.4GHz server. For VICIDIAL, we have had upto 40 agents running on a single server with the dial_level set to 1.3 or lower. And with the dial level set to 3.0, we have seen a ceiling of about 20 agents before funny things started to happen. We have tried Channel Banks to see if they help on loaded systems, and they do greatly reduce and eliminate the SIP buffer and echo problems we have. This does limit you to 24 agent channels, but the system does run better. Also, switching to Sangoma Quad T1 cards or 2nd generation Digium cards gave us a minimum of a 30% performance boost over older Digium cards. Quad T1 cards with hardware echo cancellation also raises capacity on these machines.

Got it?

About an hour ago I realized that in the mass confusion this morning (kids did not have school), Ole was left in the house. I wonder what kind of mess DH will find when he gets home. He left early today to work on our chicken coop.

Sat: shane breaks car window: It wont roll up.

Monday morning:

1. Rain comes back ~2am. Rains hard all night.
2. Laree wakes up to see it has rained. Rushes out to see if brooder heat has shorted out because of rain. It has. Chicks are alive, but cold.
3. Laree goes to feed flock. 1/2 of flock slept outside. Stupid turkeys are all wet and cold.
4. Laree falls in poop slush mud--in her only pair of pants that fit.
5. Throw pants in super-fast cycle.
6. Get kids up.
7. Sick shane to take kids to school. Kids not cooperating.
8. Notice garden sprinklers are still on at ~8am. Don't they usually go off at 4 am?
9. Laree goes out to turn off valve. Valve box filled with water and floating roaches. Sprinklers still going off.
10. Laree scoops out most roaches. Puts hand in water. Leap of faith.
11. Valve broken: cannot shut off water.
12. Laree is soaked from sprinklers.
13. Laree realizes sweater is wool, and now she smells like wet dog. Or sheep. Kinda the same.
14. Laree goes to take pants out of dryer. Still damp.
15. Laree gets in car. Seat soaking wet. 2 giant towels, minium protection.
16. LAree drives to work, wet, in the rain, with window stuck down.
17. Laree cold and cranky.
