real life test next tuesday 21:00 berlin time (utc+1)

So to me, it looks like a reliable first app package. IMHO, up to 15 or 20 participants should not have any relevant problems with network, RAM or CPU.
Thank you for taking part in this little experiment -
@luckow Sorry I couldn't join I'm just home now.
I'm curious to know the resources available for the jitsi server - CPU, RAM as configured in the cloudron UI.
My (very ad-hoc) testing so far has not been too successful, but I've not had a chance to dedicate time.

@BrutalBirdie Oh! Then I need to look again at things. Thanks.

A few others ought to try, but with lower spec'ed machines, possibly running other apps on the Cloudron too. Why? I'd like to use this but I can't afford a 29 euro/month VPS (looks like a RS 4000 G9)(yet). How good is it with less?
This is exactly what I'm trying to do at the moment with my self-hosted Cloudron.
I'm not sure I yet have networking side working, but when I do I'll happily do a test with others. Give me a few more days to find the time to test more.
I assume my Internet bandwidth will be the limiting factor before my home server.

I've done a couple of tests with Jitsi on my VPS.
The first one was with default RAM/ CPU resources with my Dad in a village in Spain on an iffy connection (sometimes it's good, often not): didn't really work at all. We couldn't see nor hear eachother.
I then upped the RAM and CPU just for good measure and did a test with my wife on our Wifi and my one my 4G mobile. Worked great.
Also did a test with someone in the same country as me (UK), but both in a different country as the server (Germany). Mostly worked well, but sometimes the audio and video went out of sync.
So far not managed to test a meeting with more than 2 people in though...
I'm looking forward to LDAP integration and being able to record meetings...

@jdaviescoates just for information. Jitsi will do a direct p2p connection with two meeting participants. Once a 3rd person joins, it will use an SFU. So the connectivity specifics are quite different between 2 and more meeting participants.
