I somehow thought that both <slow-consumer-threshold> and <slow-consumer-check-period> were meant to be in minutes, but by some mistake it got coded in seconds and then it was not possible to change it because of backwards compatibility. I thought that 2.0.0 release could be a good point to make it right. In fact, I think that <slow-consumer-threshold> should be in minutes, because if it is in seconds, the lowest message rate that it is possible to specify is 1 msg/s. I imagine it may be too high for some users who send very large messages or messages where processing of each takes a very long time. Minutes as a unit would increase the range of possible values. I'll think more about this and either start a new thread, or wait for Miro to start it (in case he feels the need to discuss the slow consumers feature in relation to the Jira he opened), or just leave it be. -- Jiří Daněk Messaging QA
