Subtopics will be more efficient. The filtering happens on the server. We maintain the subscribers for a given subtopic via a hashtable so it is fast to route messages to clients.

I have a Java application that sends different messages out to different flex clients. I do this from Java using flex.messaging.messages.AsyncMessage. I can either dynamically create a new destination for each flex client, or I can have them all use the same destination but have a different subtopic for each client. Which is more efficient? Suppose there is one destination with different subtopics. Is the subtopic filtering performed on the server or on the client? In other words, if I send a message to one subtopic, does the message go over the wire to each client, but then get filtered by the Consumer on the client? Thanks very much! Adam
