Can you provide minor details which are the basic workflows of
the RabbitMQ'use on Agora?<br>
<br>
Can you check with erlang:system_info(process_limit) which is the
process limit in your O.S?<br>

This continued for many hours. Rabbit is configured with 1048576 procs
and with mid-day load is reporting 595400 in use. At the time of this
event, our databases were beginning a prolonged period of fail, and
messages were starting to pile up. I don't have numbers for count of
pending messages at the time of this first log report, but when it
outright crashed 2.5 hours later, the backlog had spiked to more than
2 million and was declining after we fixed the databases and messages
were finally draining.
I have mountains of application and SASL logs and have already poured
through them to highlight notable sections. I'll gladly provide any
data to help diagnose the crash. The final seconds, triggered by a
rabbitmqctl call to list queues, resulted in rex dying and mnesia
exiting.
