Not to hijack the thread, but the first step would be to fix the context API to make options possible at all, then we can discuss what options make sense. > Sorry, no experience, however, when publisher is publishing faster than > receiver is receiving the size of the queue grows without limit.

This means fairly aggressive HWMs, fairly loud noises when they're reached, and possibly drastic action such as cutting off the consumer. For other patterns, HWMs play different roles. So any context defaults would probably need to be per-pattern. -Pieter _______________________________________________ zeromq-dev mailing list zeromq-dev@lists.zeromq.org http://lists.zeromq.org/mailman/listinfo/zeromq-dev
