Hi, I'm running ActiveMQ 5.3. I have a single consumer which receives (large - up to 4MB) messages from a queue and after some checking, emails them. The problem I have is that the prefetch doesn't seem to be working.
Because of the size of the messages and client memory limitations, I have set the prefetch to 1, so that just a single message is dispatched at a time (or so I thought). I did this using the following... Queue.Name?jms.prefetchPolicy.queuePrefetch=1 in the call to session.createConsumer. When I debug the client aplication and look at the console I can see ... 562 enqueued (as expected), 0 dequeued (as expected) 562 dispatched, 562 dispatched queue (I have a breakpoint in the messageHandler where I have stopped on receipt of the first message). I was expecting to see just 1 message dispatched. If I then let the application run, it very quickly runs out of memory. Any help would be appreciated.
