updated diff per Gordon's comments (all except the latest).


Bugs: QPID-5880
    https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-5880


Repository: qpid


Description
-------

Simple idea:
- in Queue::enqueue, set PersistableMessage::persistencyID "manually" to some 
unique number that is identical to all message instances that has common 
SharedState - e.g. to the pointer to SharedState
- during journal recovery, if we recover a message with already seen 
persistencyID, use the previous seen instead with its SharedState and 
PersistableMessage bits

Known limitation:
- message annotations added to some queue (e.g. due to queue sequencing 
enabled) will be either over-written or shared to all other queues during 
recovery

The patch contains a new QueueSettings option to enable (by default disabled) 
this feature on per queue basis. This somehow limits the limitation above.

Isn't storing pointer to SharedState to the disk (via persistencyID) some sort 
of security breach? (I dont think so, but worth to ask)

Can't manual setup of persistencyID break something in store? (AFAIK no as 
uniqueness of the ID is assured: 1) a new / different message with the same 
persistencyID can appear only after the previous instance is gone from memory, 
and 2) only queues with the option enabled are checked for message coupling)

Will it help in cluster? No, it won't. As when primary broker gets 1 message to 
an exchange that distributes it to 100 queues, th broker updates backup brokers 
via 100 individual "enqueue 1 message to queue q[1-100]" events. So backup 
brokers consume more memory than primary - the same amount like primary does 
not share SharedState at all.

So it is reasonable for standalone brokers only.

Testing
-------

No significant difference in memory consumption before & after restart (in 
setup of 500 queues with qpid.store_msgID=true and thousands of messages sent 
via fanout exchange to all of them).

Automated tests passed.


Thanks,

Pavel Moravec
