JBOSS Handle count increases when messages are published and received from a TOPIC

[augustusk]

Hi,

I am using JBOSS 4.2.3.

In my application i have to create multiple topic subscribers( 600 approx) and i am using a configurable number of Topic connections to create these subscribers (say, 1 topic connection to create 5 subscribers).

But, whenever there are messages flowing through the JMS Topic the number of  handles used by JBOSS keeps on increasing and never comes down.

And after some time when the handle reaches beyond 90k, JBOSS Crashes.

I am planning to test my application on latest JBOSS. But before that i would like to know, is this a known issue in JBOSS 4.2.3, or i am doing anything wrong.

Thanks

Augustus

Please give your version of messaging. Are you using jboss mq or jboss messaging?

Anyway, if you try latest jboss, I'd suggest you also try hornetQ for messaging. It's more improvement in many aspects over jboss messaging.

Hi Yong Hao Gao,

Thanks for your reply.

We are using JBossMQ , the default one that comes with JBOSS AS 4.2.3.

Thanks
