alex,

mediaproxy 2.0 is using linux kernel (not python code) to relay media
packets and the claim is close to wire speed performance.

mediaproxy is easy to use and set up.  i don't have experience with
rtpproxy.

unfortunately i just discovered that there may be a serious problem with
mediaproxy 2.0 that was not there in mediaproxy 1.9.  looks like
mediaproxy 2.0 does not allow nated ua1 behind one mediaproxy to talk to
nated ua2 behind another mediaproxy.  dead lock happens and both
mediaproxies are waiting packets from each other and don't forward
packets that they have received from their uas.

so far i have not got any response to this from the developers.
