[rabbitmq-discuss] Specifying channel_max

[Gavin M. Roy]

I would look to minimize your channel usage. There is overhead per-channel
on a connection basis. Having run into issues due to unintentionally having
too many channels open recently, I'd offer that if you can use one channel
on one connection instead of two or more channels on one connection, you
should.

Regards,

Gavin
