Hylafax - Capacity Handling

Hi Folks,

Over the last few days I had issues with Hylafax handling large number of
requests. I had over 100 modems but I see Hylafax seems to be lost when you
generate 60 - 70 faxes simultaneously. I have 16 CPUs and 32 GB RAM. It is
a pretty decent hardware.

   1.

   There were issues with queueing. I got some FIFO errors. Had to clear my
   sendq directory and start all over. What is the maximum number of faxes
   that Hylafax can queue nicely ? Is there a way I can increase or set this
   parameter ?
   2.

   What is the maximum number of Faxes can be sent out via Hylafax
   simultaneously ? Or how many can it fire in 1 round ?
   3.

   I also saw Hylafax giving me timeouts when I was using sendfax from the
   command line

I would like to do some stress tests. Any guidance would be appreciated.

Thanks,
