Claus Ibsen commented on CAMEL-4863:
------------------------------------
The direct component is synchronous, which mean that it will block waiting for
the exchange to be fully completed. So the threads EIP does not help much, as
the direct component waits (in your case the producerTemplate with the direct
producer) until the threads is done, before its done as well.
You will need to use a component that supports the async routing to take fully
advantage of the threads EIP.
> Using <threads>/threads() is ALOT slower than using the seda:endpoint

> Key: CAMEL-4863
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CAMEL-4863
> Project: Camel
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: camel-core
> Affects Versions: 2.9.0
> Environment: JBoss 7.1 CR1b
> Reporter: Aaron Whiteside
> Priority: Critical
> Labels: performance, seda, threading, threads
> Fix For: 2.10
>
> Attachments: camel-threads-vs-seda-testcase.tar.gz

> Snippets from my routing file:
> {code:xml}
> <threads maxPoolSize="10" maxQueueSize="10">
> <to uri="jms:queue:testQueue?deliveryPersistent=true"/>
> </threads>
> {code}
> compared to:
> {code:xml}
> <to uri="seda:test?concurrentConsumers=10&size=10"/>
> {code}
> {code:xml}
> <from uri="seda:test?concurrentConsumers=10&size=10"/>
> <to uri="jms:queue:testQueue?deliveryPersistent=true"/>
> {code}
> Using <threads> I get about 600 requests/per second.
> Using seda endpoint I get about 3000 requests/per second.
> Looking at the thread pools created by Camel in jconsole: I can see that the
> one created by <threads> is mostly idle as compared to the one created by the
> seda endpoint which is always busy.
> Also in the MBean Camel creates for it's managed thread pools, for the
> ThreadPool created by <threads> the TaskQueueSize attribute is almost always
> 0 and never more than 1. This is in contrast to the TaskQueueSize attribute
> on ThreadPool created by the seda endpoint which is always 10 (the seda queue
> size, and obviously until all the tasks have completed).
