Hi Nick, Sorry if I was unclear. It's possible for the change to be 100% backwards compatible, but still not have a separate code path for people who don't want to use this feature, right? What I am getting at is basically: will this feature increase broker-side memory consumption for people who don't use it? best, Colin
