[rabbitmq-discuss] memory flow control

[Raviv Pavel]

Because it's not slower - it's blocked and the SDK doesn't allow me to
specify a timeout.
So once a rabbit node gets clogged with unacked messages and hits it's
memory watermark, any thread in my app trying to publish will get blocked
forever.
I've been looking at the source for the .NET SDK (which w'ere using) and it
blocks on flushing to the TCP stream.
I ended up modifying the SDK to set a send timeout on the socket, so when
the server blocks producers, I get an exception after 2 seconds instead of
being blocked.

Thanks
