Answers: 1.) JBoss will attempt to handle all of the connections via the connection pool. But 2000 connections will most likely not be able to be handled and you will start getting exceptions. 2.) Configurable 3.) Yes. You should always code for a possible connection timeout or failure. 4.) De

Hmmm... No response in over a week. If people can say they can handle 1000s of concurrent users, why can't they talk more about the hardware and configuration they are using. Why are people so reluctant to speak about this... you would think they would brag about it. View the original post

Thank you for the response. I am trying to find out, on average, what people are getting in concurrent usage. I completely understand you can create a bad system and get 1 concurrent user. Or you can create a great architecture and get 100x more. Or you could have an application that doesn

My experiences with JMS are lackluster when it comes to performance. We need all of our queues to be persisted, so that slows us down a bit. And under heavy load, the system can come to its knees. Since the main reason for using JMS is to enable asynchronous processing, why not drop JMS in fa
