---------------------------------------------

[~alanprot] - good point....yeah the simplest thing in that case if you want to 
make sure unclean shutdown works is to just send less messages and to make the 
journal files small.  You could make the journal files just a few KB in size 
and then send maybe a couple hundred messages (or whatever is needed) and it 
would be fine

I will just change that real quick so we don't run the risk of it being brittle

> Hi.
> We noticed that ActiveMQ reads lots of pages in the index file when is 
> starting up to recover the destinations statistics:
> [https://github.com/apache/activemq/blob/master/activemq-kahadb-store/src/main/java/org/apache/activemq/store/kahadb/KahaDBStore.java#L819]
> Nowadays, in order to do that, activemq traverse the 
> storedDestination.locationIndex to get the messageCount and totalMessageSize 
> of each destination. For destinations with lots of messages this process can 
> take a while making the startup process take long time.
> In a case of a master-slave broker, this prevent the broker to fast failover 
> and does not meet what is stated on 
> [http://activemq.apache.org/shared-file-system-master-slave.html.]
> {quote}If you have a SAN or shared file system it can be used to provide 
> _high availability_ such that if a broker is killed, another broker can take 
> over immediately. 
> {quote}
> One solution for this is keep track of the destination statistics summary in 
> the index file and doing so, we dont need to read all the locationIndex on 
> the start up.
> The code change proposed is backward compatible but need a bump on the kahadb 
> version. If this information is not in the index, the broker will fall back 
> to the current implementation, which means that the first time people upgrade 
> to the new version, it will still have to read the locationIndex, but 
> subsequent restarts will be fast.
> This change should have a negligible performance impact during normal 
> activemq operation, as this change introduce a few more bytes of data to the 
> index and this information will be on checkpoints. Also, this new information 
> is synchronized with the locationIndex as they are update at the same 
> transaction.
