Hi Torsten, We are using ActiveMQ 5.4.2 Thank you for your help, I will try that and advise of the results.

Even with producer flow control disabled, the broker will still suspend producers when it reaches any of the configured systemUsage limits. If you don't specify any systemUsage in your brokers configuration, a default and hard coded systemUsage applies. So producers can still be blocked. Its perhaps better to explicitly set the systemUsage to your requirements than rely on the defaults. Also, when you reach 70% of the configured queue destination memory limit, the cursor will not store any more new msgs in memory but reload them from the persistence adapter when its time to dispatch them. Persistent queue messages get written to kahadb right when being received by the broker.
