Hello,

I know what I am about to post will upset a few people, however I think it
is important that I document my experience with ActiveMQ in the hopes that
others like me can have an understanding of the issues that you will face.

A little history.

I am not new to Open Source projects, have been involved in them and have
sponsored the use of open source for many years.

I have been working with various message brokers for a few years.  My first
experience was with TIBCO EMS.  Needless to say I was very impressed with
the stability and functionality of this fine EMS.  Next I had the
opportunity to work with Sonic EMS.  Again I was impressed with this product
and was even happier with its low cost of ownership.

Over the last 6 weeks it has been my job to evaluate for our Trading firm an
internal messaging system.  We wanted to use a EMS solution for
dissemination of pricing data to our in-house applications as well as
external clients of ours.  The messaging systems we are evaluating.  TIBCO
EMS, MSMQ 3.0, SONIC EMS, ACTIVEMQ 4.1.1 or ActieMQ 5.0.

How did each product fair?
1. Tibco EMS no issues with any of the stress tests and performance tests.
2. MSMQ don't even get me started with this POS.
3. SONIC EMS no issues with any of the stress tests and performance tests.
4. ActiveMQ can not make it past any stress tests.  See issues below for an
understanding of what we saw.


I don't see JBossMessaging in this list, is this not also a reasonably mature option?
