Multiplexer

[lovelyliatroim]

Hi Guys,
At the moment I have 2 jgroups channels, one that JBoss Cache is using and the other is what the app is using. Now debating with myself to setup the multiplexer so both use one channel. The channel the app uses has very few messages going between nodes, just a few at startup and if everything runs smoothly there would be no more messaging.

Is it worth setting up the multiplexer in this case?? I dont forsee in the future the additional need for more channels and the traffic on the app channel is will be very low.

Any input is welcome.

Thanks,
LL

The multiplexer could help, otherwise using a shared transport is a more robust way to share network resources in JGroups while still having independent membership views, etc. See the JGroups docs not the shared transport.
