in which case 7KHz outbound is quite reasonable. For comparison, I 
suggest you try transient messages, and no-ack mode.

You mentioned 200 items, which really isn't a lot.

How fast is "fast enough"? You have *50* consumers draining from a 
single queue. No matter how fast rabbit is, if you add enough consumers 
eventually rabbit won't be able to keep them all busy.
