Hi there bwatrous, Your average sent time for the problematic RUN 1 (40ms) indicates that your problem is most probably caused by the bad Nagle's algorithm / Delayed ACK timeout interaction. This timeout is 40ms in Linux and 200ms in Windows / other systems.
In short, the solution is to enable TCP_NODELAY flag on all your sockets. -This is possible in the ActiveMQ CPP client since version 2.0.1. You should append tcpNoDelay=true to the connection URL. -On the broker's side, you should enable the TCP_NODELAY flag in the broker's sockets. For this, following the documentation, you should append 'wireFormat.tcpNoDelayEnabled=true' to your connector's URI. In fact, this doesn't work and it is silently ignored. I discovered that 'socket.tcpNoDelay=true' works if you append it to an ActiveMQ Java CLIENT's connection URI; but it still doesn't work for a BROKER's connector URI. So, the only solution is to go to the broker's source code (org.apache.activemq.transport.tcp.TcpTransport.initialiseSocket method) and add the following line of Java code: ---> sock.setTcpNoDelay(true); <--- at the end of the method, so that all broker's sockets are created with TCP_NODELAY=true by default. The parsing of options in a broker's activemq.xml connector URI is broken right now, and it sadly doesn't seem to be a priority that this is fixed for next releases. So, I wonder how many folks encounter this '40 ms' problem, and when they finally guess that the solution is the TCP_NODELAY flag (not so easy), they try it and think it was not the right solution because 'wireFormat.tcpNoDelayEnabled=true' or 'tcpNoDelay=true' or 'socket.tcpNoDelay=true' get all silently ignored (no error message, but no effect on the sockets). Probably lots of frustration and lost hours... :( Related messages and JIRA's: https://issues.apache.org/activemq/browse/AMQ-1156 https://issues.apache.org/activemq/browse/AMQ-1137 http://issues.apache.org/activemq/browse/AMQ-1233 http://www.nabble.com/AMQCPP-Openwire-much-slower-than-Stomp--tf3599986s2354.html#a10055544 -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/CPP-client%3A-high-latency-for-large-messages-tf3995387s2354.html#a11355089 Sent from the ActiveMQ - User mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
