FreeSwitch Latency on Proxmox vs VMWare

[Mayank006]

Hi,

When we were running Freeswitch VM on VMWare, we had to change the latency option provided by VMWare to get the best performance. Link: https://docs.vmware.com/en/VMware-v...UID-206CF841-F34E-4F54-855F-DA403311CB66.html

I don't see such settings on Proxmox. Can someone please help to know the latency settings we need for the Proxmox FreeSwitch VM or Proxmox Freeswitch VM works without latency configurations?

we are running several freeswitch installations without any special configurations.

normaly with "host" cpu type

Here are the settings of my Freeswitch VM. Please suggest changes other than the CPU host that you think should have.

as I said before, we are running quite large freeswitch installations on "default" settings. guest os is debian. we dont have latency problems.

Have you done any benchmarks or anything to measure latency or jitter to demonstrate you require more tuning?

The main setting that I am aware of, under hardware, processors, increase the "CPU units" . That should give the vm a higher priority over vms with a lower CPU units settings.

You could mess with affinity of this and other vms, so it has dedicated cores, but unless you are having issues that sounds like premature optimization and would make things more difficult to maintain.
