Benchmarking

Media Gateway can collect statistics and report it to logs. Statistics includes FPS (frames per second) metric which can be used for benchmarking. FPS metric can be calculated by a timestamp period or frame period.

Statistics by timestamp period

Statics calculation by a timestamp period means that data is collected during the timeout and by the end of the timeout metrics are calculated from the collected data.

Statistics by frame period

Statics calculation by a frame period means that data is collected until the number of collected frames reaches the specified number and then metrics are calculated from the collected data.
