Ah, OK, now I see clearly. Well, the "obvious" happens, but I didn't realize it myself:
You set the retry count to -1, that is infinite. So messages are never discarded. When nobody is reading the pipe, a queue builds up. In the log, the queue capacity is simply exhausted. As it looks from the log, nobody seems to be reading the pipe, at least we consistently get error 11 back from the write API call. Can you confirm this (I may be wrong, just looking quickly).
