What do you have as a UAS?
The UDP receive buffer increase that Ovidiu suggested would be necessary if you see traffic piling up/getting dropped, e.g. look at `netstat -s | grep "receive buffer errors"` or watch for 2nd column Recv-Q of netstat.
Cheers,

I assume that you are using udp. Please increase the length of the udp queue:

Hi all!
I have been doing some performance tests with Kamailio 5.7.4 and SIPp. The infrastructure is as follows:3 VMs running on VMWare ESXi running: UAC on 10.20.0.1 with SIPP-> Kamailio on 10.20.0.5 -> UAS on 10.20.0.3
The Kamailio VM has 6 dedicated vCPU of type Intel(R) Xeon(R) Silver 4216 CPU @ 2.10GHz and, 2 NICs and 4Gb RAM and MariaDB 10.6 as DB Backend., all running on a HP G380 host with a gazillion CPUs and a googol disk space!
I currently have 3 scripts:
- script #1 stateful with RTJson and simulating requests to routing
engine and accounting
- script #2 stateful but with just a simple routing to UAS, no rules, no
DB,
- script #3 stateless with a forward to UAS
With script #3 I can go up to 2000CPS without issues with CPU at 37%! Above that value, I get retransmissions everywhere. On both scripts #1 and #2, the limit is 330CPS max after which I get a lot of retransmissions, while CPU/Core usage on Kamailio server stays below 10%. So I do not expect this to be a CPU issue.
I could not understand why such (low) results, so I followed this article found at https://www.kamailio.org/docs/openser-performance-tests/#tm-tests-c https://www.kamailio.org/docs/openser-performance-tests/#tm-tests-c and created exact same scenarios, with kamailio script and SIPP templates available on the article, hoping for better results. But I get the same results: between 300 and 330CPS which is far, very far from the 7000CPS found in the article!
I understand that I'm using VMs and probably the tests made for the article, which is pretty old already, were made on physical servers. Still, I would not expect 95% of lower performance!
Any clue what could be the issue? I suspect NICs, but.... Any tips anyone could share?
Thanks in advance!
