<body class='hmmessage'><div dir='ltr'>Hi,<br><br>I'm trying to find out what the criteria for setting the "children" parameter is. <br><br>We are running Opensips (as a dispatcher) on a dedicated server with a single Intel® Xeon® X5660, 2.8Ghz, 6 core processor and 16GB RAM. Currently children=8. What can be the optimum value on this server to handle 1000-5000 calls per second (and about 10000 subscriptions and registrations every minute)?<br><br>Does number of cores have an impact on Opensips performance?<br><br>Thanks,<br>Matt<br><br><br>                                            </div></body>
