thats exactly what I did.
I tried with consumerFlowLimit = 1 and 50
1 seems to be the worst , I would expect "1" to be bad in thoroughput but should be good in LB.
50 seems to do an OK job .. At least the CPU utilization seems to be at 70% in one machine and 100% on other.
Just some info on my set up.
M1 which is the DAS server and which claims as the MasterBroker and has one Instance , is Win 2003 Std - Xeon Dual. 4GB
M2 is a Windows XP-pro Desk top/2GB/Dual Core pentium.
M2 seems to do all the work, 100% CPU utilization and processes almost double the number of messages as M1.
Another interesting thing, when I do EJB loook up on this cluster, I seems to hit M2 more often than M1.
