I am the OP. I actually have a solution running now, using JSON-RPC as the connector between Kamailio and the Java EE business logic. I am looking for an alternate solution to resolve the limitations with the RPC mechanism. Performance is not an issue at all. In-fact performance is barely a consideration for this application -- busy hour traffic is around 5 transactions per second, with the majority of the transactions being SIP MESSAGE request/response.

While SIP requires sub-second precision, it does not require millisecond precision. :-) In any case, garbage collection is definitely a problem, but there are ways of optimising the JVM's GC behaviour to be more or less favourable to the task. > There are plenty of other problems with Java as well - startup is > usually very slow.

That is definitely true, though one might argue that this is a cultural problem rather than an innate Java problem. In any case, I am not a Java programmer and am not defending Java, so please don't misconstrue my stance. I'm just saying that it might not be _wholly_ unsuitable to the task. I do not think, and have never thought, that Java is an ideal language in which to implement SIP call processing. -- Alex -- Alex Balashov - Principal Evariste Systems LLC 235 E Ponce de Leon Ave Suite 106 Decatur, GA 30030 Tel: +1-678-954-0670 Fax: +1-404-961-1892 Web: http://www.evaristesys.com/, http://www.alexbalashov.com/ _______________________________________________ SIP Express Router (SER) and Kamailio (OpenSER) - sr-users mailing list sr-users@lists.sip-router.org http://lists.sip-router.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sr-users _______________________________________________ SIP Express Router (SER) and Kamailio (OpenSER) - sr-users mailing list sr-users@lists.sip-router.org http://lists.sip-router.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sr-users
