Good Morning to the Group!
As a test, I set up a stress test to see what I could do in building confidence in the phone system on the mesh. I opened up our conference line and we welcomed in as many users as we could to see how things would perform. What I found was we were only able to bring in 5 callers on the line at once. This seemed like a far cry from what it should be able to do.
I know I have been on the east coast weekly conference call in a few times and it worked very well. I guess with that said I need to find the pinch point in my system
At the time of the test the mesh (seemed) to have good links and be moving adequate amounts of traffic.
Thank you for your time!

- Is there a good mesh tool to watch the performance live to gauge network stability?
- What are the real world limitation of this type of phone server
- Could there be a configuration setting that could assist in performance
- If I was to move up the next level phone server what would it be?
Thank you for your time!
How many users do you have it set for in the PBX Conferences? Setting it to "0" is no limit.
On a Raspberry Pi and I have had up to 7 users without a problem. I now run my PBX on a PC but I have a backup RPi too. I never load tested the PC PBX as yet.

Model 1,2,3,4?
What CPU speed?
IIRC somewhere was mentioned that a RPi-3 would handle 10 active extensions.
YMMV

Just for a frame of reference, where I work uses an Avaya IP PBX for our work phones, with hundreds of extensions, and each conference can only handle 6 extensions, including inside and outside lines.
