Yep the signaling port not the RTP port, and yes I think there is a fairly  
small amount of traffic and rbtree might work.

BTW, there is another side of this problem, the time to bind() those 16K 
sockets before starting the test - at least on 2.6.7 we didn't yet get to look 
at this issue on a recent kernel.
