[rabbitmq-discuss] persistent messages stored where?

[Simon MacMullen]

Yes; assuming you haven't been doing anything funky with changing node 
names etc. You'll pick up the configuration database and a couple of 
other things too, but they're not huge. To count just the message store, 
look at

/var/lib/rabbitmq/mnesia/rabbit@$(hostname)/msg_store_persistent/

(I think, maybe Matthew will correct me now...)

You should also be aware that when a message gets routed to many queues, 
RabbitMQ only stores one copy on disk (plus a lot of pointers). I don't 
know if that's relevant to your use case.

Cheers, Simon
