[rabbitmq-discuss] RabbitMQ to the browser - scale question

Wed Dec 21 01:28:40 GMT 2011

My use case is distributing data updates  to user's browsers. Typical
initial load of 5KB and updates of <200B at a rate of 0.5 updates/s. I
have 500 topics and 1M browser clients, with a very uneven sub
profile  e.g. 30% of users subscribing to the same one topic. Most
users subscribe to just one topic. Clients using browsers are a bit
erratic.

I have a few questions:
1. Can RabbitMQ handle that load?
2. What is the roadmap for rabbitmq_jsonrpc_channel?
3. How does RabbitMQ (+jsonrpc plugin) deal with browser clients
failing to disconnect explicitly?
4. What does this mean for thread and socket counts server-side?
