I have a durable queue which holds persistent messages. The messages arrive into the queue at a rate of about 10 messages per second.</p><p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; font-size: 14px; vertical-align: baseline; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); clear: both; word-wrap: break-word; font-family: Arial, 'Liberation Sans', 'DejaVu Sans', sans-serif; line-height: 18px; position: static; z-index: auto; ">
The client is unable to fetch those messages at that rate. As a result the queue on the server keeps growing.</p><p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; font-size: 14px; vertical-align: baseline; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); clear: both; word-wrap: break-word; font-family: Arial, 'Liberation Sans', 'DejaVu Sans', sans-serif; line-height: 18px; position: static; z-index: auto; ">
Each message is less than 1 KB and I have a healthy 2 Mbps line between the server and my machine. Using a network monitoring utility, I found that it is hardly using any of that bandwidth.</p><p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; font-size: 14px; vertical-align: baseline; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); clear: both; word-wrap: break-word; font-family: Arial, 'Liberation Sans', 'DejaVu Sans', sans-serif; line-height: 18px; position: static; z-index: auto; ">
The client is doing nothing with the messages as of now, just printing them to console so processing time on client is almost 0.</p><p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; font-size: 14px; vertical-align: baseline; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); clear: both; word-wrap: break-word; font-family: Arial, 'Liberation Sans', 'DejaVu Sans', sans-serif; line-height: 18px; position: static; z-index: auto; ">
Some other details: I am using a java client. I have set the client to prefetch 10000 messages. (also tried with default values) The round trip time is about 290 - 350 ms. Messages are individually acknowledged.</p><p style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 0px; padding-top: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; font-size: 14px; vertical-align: baseline; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); clear: both; word-wrap: break-word; font-family: Arial, 'Liberation Sans', 'DejaVu Sans', sans-serif; line-height: 18px; position: static; z-index: auto; ">
The available resources are being underutilized and 10 messages per second is hardly any load in my opinion. How do I speed up things so that messages held up in queue are transferred faster to the client. Possibly using some sort of batching.</p></blockquote></div>I regularly process 2000 messages per second from durable queues with persistent messages, with a prefetch-count of 2000. My messages are 1500 to 2000 bytes each. The RabbitMQ server and the consumer are both in the same data center. My consumer is writing the messages to disk, in a flat-file.<div><br></div><div>There must be something in the Java code which causes the slowdown. Can you post your setup and processing loop?</div><div><br></div><div>Bye,</div><div>Fran�ois</div><div><br></div></body></html>
