[rabbitmq-discuss] Does Rabbit store fanout messages once, or N times?

One.

If the broker is not clustered, the message content is only stored once,
but some information about it (its id, its position in each queue) is
stored N times.

If the broker is clustered, the situation is the same as above and
the clustered brokers will exchange message content on-demand.

By the way, this is true for any exchange type, not just fanout.

Cheers,
Alex
