Is 100 - 100KB msgs/sec achievable in JBossMQ?

[malmit]

I am trying to determine whether or not 100 - 100KB msgs/sec is achievable or not in JBossMQ. I've configured JBoss with the following features: mysql persistence for JMS durable subscriptions, HA JMS, connection pool for mysql datasource. Currently I can only the max number of messages I've been able to send in 1 sec. is ~55 messages. I tested this out running 3 client programs which send to the HA JMS topic. Is there anything that I can do to achieve my goal? Would updating my connection pool settings help any (min-pool = 10 max-pool = 100 block-timeout = 5000 idle timeout = 15)?

Thanks.

Concrete throughput numbers are determined by your specific hardware. Anyway I would bet that the database is the primary 'bottleneck', not JBossMQ.

Write a simple JDBC test client that inserts dummy Message and MessageBLOB data directly into the underlying MySQL message table of your persistence store. This will give you an indication of the maximum database throughput.

I got a recommendation against using MySQL for blobs here.
