[rabbitmq-discuss] High CPU Usage

[Bryan Murphy]

I want to set up 3 queues, High, Medium, and Low where I always pull
messages from the higher priority queues first.  Right now, I more or less
do the following:

while (true)
{
  result = null;

  foreach (var queue in queues)
  {
    result = model.BasicGet(queue, false);

    if (result != null)
      break;
  }

  if (result != null)
    DoSomething(result);

  Thread.Sleep(15); // 15ms
}

Functionally this achieves what I'm trying to accomplish, however, the CPU
usage of the RabbitMQ server goes through the roof once I spin up a few
listeners.

Is there another way I can accomplish the same thing that doesn't hit the
RabbitMQ server so hard?

Thanks,
Bryan
