Hi Jerry,

If I recall correctly, there was a talk at an AstriCon or a web page 
somewhere that I came across at one point (I'm having a hard time 
finding it now) that dove in fairly deep into Asterisk performance 
related to multiple cores.

And if I recall correctly, the conclusion was that the drop-off was 
around 8-12 cores -- and beyond that the extra cores aren't doing much 
other than helping schedule work and you can't really get more 
concurrent calls by adding more cores.

Someone who is a bit more well-versed in large-machine performance with 
Asterisk can certainly chime in here, but from what I gather, throwing 
40 cores at a single Asterisk instance is not the magic bullet to 
support a massive number of calls.
