That's the standard last-value-cache behaviour. It consists of two distinct message flows: A real-time stock quote distribution (PUB/SUB) and a channel to deliver on-request stock quote snapshots (REQ/REP). Mixing these two into a single socket can't be really made work IMO. > If you were re-implementing > REQ/REP over multicast you may desire back pressure in order to report > status back upstream. I have no experience with this scenario. I cannot comment on it.
