Hi,
I am currently digging into some of the problems reported to BlazeDSs memory consumption. While there seems to be a real problem in the cleanup of clients, there is one other problem that could eventually help systems with a high throughput of messages. Usually messages for a client are added to that clients message queue. Now sometimes there are messages that need to be delivered, but (at least im my usecases) most messages should be delivered, but if the server is under extreme load it wouldn't be that bad to have them dropped. One possible solution possibly resolving some of the memory problems would be to change the queues to use weak references, that the VM can clean them up if memory is low. I would like to extend the Message interface with an method that controls if weak or strong references should be used. I was thinking of setting a default on the channel and allowing to explicitly override this default in the individual message. What do you think? Would this option be ok for you? Chris
