<span>I've noticed this behavior as well. In my case, I was over saturating a single node in a cluster. I solved my problem by expanding my cluster size and balancing my publishers across the cluster. You might want to check the rabbitmq.log/rabbmq-sasl.log file and see if you notice any weird behavior in there, such as abnormal connection terminations.</span></div><div><span><br></span></div><div><span>Hope this helps,</span></div><div><span><br></span></div><div><span>Gavin</span></div><div>
