Hi - I would be very interested in this (and willing to test). We had to back out from using camel for our req/res jms (we now use jmstemplate directly) - especially because the persistentrelyqueuemanager (or something like that) seemed to use the same connection - so eventually the fw closed that connection during hours with little traffic.
Another positive effect of switching to using jmstemplate directly is that the same thread is handling the response and the request - and we have a thread scoped state object attached to it. We are running in a cluster - but because we use correlationid this is not a problem as you say. The underlying MOM is WebSphere MQ. BTW: "vinning" in my rely was supposted to spell "common" - I blame my phone for that ;-) 2011/8/13 Claus Ibsen <claus.ib...@gmail.com> > Hi Jim, others > > I got some code for supporting exclusive replyTo queues.
