asterisk users - Jul 2012 - Maximum concurrent calls using call files

I am planning on building a testing module which would spawn about 500
calls in order to test the performance of the network by transferring
audio/speech files to end points at that juncture.Is it possible to spawn
as many concurrent calls (or nearly concurrent calls) using just call
files.Is there a limit as to the maximum number that could be spawned.?
I tried doing this for about 20 calls and found that there is
autofallthrough after a point of time.Is this a problem with my dialplan or
is it because of the call files (i also get a warning which states that the
ast_queue_frame:Exceptionally long queue length)

Thanks,
Sathiish

I haven't used it, so can't recommend it per se; but as I understand
it, iperf is a tool that can do that kind of simulation for you:
http://iperf.sourceforge.net/ might be worth trying before you build
your own modules.
