Hi Dejan, yes you're right.
performing the same tests on ActiveMq 5.3.1 that I have already installed
all run as we expect.
After sending a lot of messages to a queue with slow consumers, we noticed
that the memory goes constant and the store usage begin to grow. 
When we reach the 100% of the store usage ActiveMQ blocks the producer and
log an info "Usage Manager Store is Full...".
After analyzing the memory dump of the new release now we can notice that
the Queue object has only a constant prefetched buffer of messages as we
expect.
Tnx for your support :)
