> Using proton engine in ActiveMQ to implement AMQP 1.0 support we noticed that
> a send from broker to the QPid JMS client is terribly slow for large
> messages.
> After some debugging it appears that the SaslImpl class imposes a pretty big
> penalty due to the way it wraps the input and output processors of the
> TransportImpl class.
> When sasl() method of TransportImpl is called to get hold of the Sasl impl
> for authentication the transport init method is called and buffers are
> allocated. In the SaslImpl class the result is that the output buffer is
> allocated with the default value of the remote max frame size since there
> hasn't been any negotiation yet. After the SASL handshake completes and the
> TransportImpl has updated itself to reflect the QPid client's preferred 64k
> max frame size, the SaslImpl instance still continues on with it's internal
> output buffer of 512 bytes.
> The end result of this is that as we attempt to send out a larger message we
> end up in a situation where we are draining the underlying transport output
> buffer 512 bytes at a time.
> I attached a patch that takes a stab at making the SaslImpl become a passive
> entity after it completes the handshake. In testing on ActiveMQ we go from
> sending out a 10mb message in 35+ seconds to around 300ms. Unfortunately
> some of the tests in the proton tests suite are now failing with this so it's
> not quite right.
