Name

max_resident_messages — threshold above which messages are not held in memory

Synopsis

Max_Resident_Messages = 32768

Description

max_resident_messages is used to control the maximum number of messages held concurrently in memory. A value of 0 sets no limit. A rough guide to setting this option is to divide the maximum amount of RAM that you want to reserve for messages by your growbuf_size. For more information about the growbuf_size option see growbuf_size.

The default value for max_resident_messages is 32768. However, this default value is typically overridden in the ecelerity.conf file and set to 65536.

Warning

This is an advanced option. Setting this option to small non-zero values can have deleterious effects on performance. Thorough testing is recommended prior to deployment in a production environment.

Scope

max_resident_messages is valid in the binding, binding_group and global scopes.
