    Is there a max. Message Queue size?

    asander

      Hello,

      I hope I have chosen the right forum ...
      I would intend to regard this question as a MQ question but the MQ forum is closed and I have no idea where to put this question now...


      I have a MDB that receives data to process from an external application. Currently this works very well. In rare conditions there can be really a flood of messages, so there may be thousands of messages, waiting to be processed by the MDB.

      My question now is: Is there a max size of the message queue? Is there a risk that messages might get lost, if there are much more messages than can be processed at the moment?

      By the way: I am using JBoss 4.2.2

      Thanks in advance for every answer

      Andreas
