[Java] Timeout on consumer creation with large queues
-----------------------------------------------------

                 Key: QPID-1119
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-1119
             Project: Qpid
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Java Broker
    Affects Versions: M2.1
            Reporter: Marnie McCormack
             Fix For: M3


We've seen consumer timeout ("Error registering consumer: 
org.apache.qpid.AMQTimeoutException: Server did not respond in a timely 
fashion"). This was seen with volume testing, and 45,000 messages in the queue 
the consumer was attempting to connect to.

The issue there is that for every subscription request it needs to go over the 
whole queue, to work out which messages should go to which subscriber. The 
broker runs with number of threads == number of cores, so if you have lots of 
consumers they will queue up behind one another to get processed. One solution 
is to stagger the consumer starts on the appication side, but we can also 
expose the connection timeout for configuration so that applications can use 
this.

Thus need to create a configurable timeout for sync responses. Rob Godfrey can 
advise if further info required.
