If you send only single part messages then you might use ZMQ_CONFLATE.

This is no longer necessary as pub/sub filtering is currently performed 
on publisher's side.

This is lengthy operation. If CONFLATE is not an option you may consider 
doing subscribe/unsubscribe which should be significantly faster. Other 
option would include changing from pub/sub to f.e. req/rep. This way 
requestor (previously subscriber) could ask for last message.
