[rabbitmq-discuss] basic.qos prefetch across multiple queues - useful?

Mon Mar 18 18:36:10 GMT 2013

Hi,

I think per-queue would be better, at least for the PHP people. Since PHP
doesn't support threads is not common to have multiple channels in one
process. So basic.qos as is today limits every queue in the channel for
most PHP scripts.

I guess other languages like Python are in the same area.

Regards,

Alvaro
