[OpenSIPS-Users] What does exactally mean lots of warnings about timer_ticker in the log (OpenSIPS 2.1)?

[Eric Tamme]

I was just speaking with bogdan, apparently i am wrong.  he said:

"no, there is no way to do that, as right now any process (SIP worker) 
can execute (if free) the timer jobs, and the timer_partitions in TM has 
nothing to do with that change (in how timer jobs are executed)"

So ... i guess you need to prevent any type of blocking operations ...
