[rabbitmq-discuss] Optimizing Tips for beginner rabbitMQ user

Tue Mar 26 10:46:06 GMT 2013

My primary first thing would be to drop all your processing and just accept
the messages and throw them away. That would immediately tell you where the
performance problem is. Next, I would not rule out the possibility of
something being wrong at a lower level (e.g., network). 2-3 msg/s is a
fairly low rate, which suggest something is wrong somewhere, or you are
doing some serious heavy lifting for each message.

Increasing the possible parallelism though more channels is one important
trick. The other is to eliminate latency by setting up some prefetching via
QoS. But beware of giving it too much prefetching.

Finally, do not forget to measure. Measurement can often show why something
doesn't work as expected.
