[rabbitmq-discuss] RabbitMQ message receiving slower than publishing

[T-zex]

Thank you Matthew.

Yes, we are using IModel.BasicConsume, noAck = false.
We use DefaultBasicConsumer and HandleBasicDeliver override is just
incrementing the counter in this test, so no latency here.
What do you mean by "broker has sent all messages to the receiver"? We
are not using QueueingBasicConsumer.

The documentation says "RabbitMQ operates at sub-millisecond latency
in transient mode under a load of 10k messages per second."
Is this sending and receiving or is it just sending? We can achieve
10k sending but receiving is 7k.
