<html><head></head><body>Workers process SIP messages, which means both requests and replies. So, you can't use request-oriented tracking to make that decision. <br>
<br>
The answers to your question are basically:<br>
<br>
1. Keep your call processing as fast and light as possible. <br>
<br>
2. Use async methods. <br>
<br>
Async methods only help so much, due to the strict timing tolerances of SIP, and real-time, delay-sensitive communication in general. The fundamental answer is basically #1--incur as little delay as possible. <br>
