Thanks for your answer Rob, this is exactly what I was looking for. :) Total Ordering seems like such a fundamental thing for a Persistent Queue. I'm surprised there hasn't been a solid answer to this question. Is there a standard way people get around this? Would an Exclusive Consumer guarantee Total Order? I would think that a new Exclusive consumer wouldn't be able to consume messages until the crashed TCP connection/consumer finally closed and released the outstanding messages.
