It's still quite hard to see there could be a limit on subscriptions, in systems I work on we have 100k + on single publisher.
I would dig deeper and make sure 1. subscriptions make it through to the publisher, this is where the filtering happens (apart from pgm/mcast transport) 2. Check the subscriptions that arrives on the publisher match the subject you are publishing To do this you can change your publisher socket to ZMQ_XPUB then poll that socket for incoming messages. The first byte will be 1 (subscribe) followed by the subject pattern, On Wed, May 15, 2019 at 10:58 AM Bekritsky, Benjamin < benjamin.bekrit...@zebra.com> wrote: > If I have another process that continually cycles through 0-1024 and > anything greater than 1000 doesn’t come through… the issue is not a simply > missing the original messages, it is that the subscriptions don’t seem to > go through… > > > > *From:* James Harvey <jamesdillonhar...@gmail.com> > *Sent:* Wednesday, May 15, 2019 12:54 PM > *To:* ZeroMQ development list <zeromq-dev@lists.zeromq.org> > *Cc:* Bekritsky, Benjamin <benjamin.bekrit...@zebra.com> > *Subject:* Re: [zeromq-dev] max PUB/SUB topics > > > > [External Email] > > And regarding the c example where you see the issue if you start > publishing before subscribing. > > *" However, if instead of alternating pub/sub, I do the pubs first and > then the subs, I occasionally hit the 1000 limit.
