Improve message priority algorithm ---------------------------------- Key: JBMESSAGING-180 URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBMESSAGING-180 Project: JBoss Messaging Issue Type: Task Components: Messaging Core Reporter: Tim Fox Assigned To: Tim Fox Priority: Minor Fix For: 2.0.0 Beta 1 Original Estimate: 3 days Remaining Estimate: 3 days The current message priority strategy is very crude and always delivers higher priority messages first if they exist. This can cause starvation of lower priority messages. The algorithm should be improved to prevent starvation. It may be an idea to make the algorithm pluggable using the strategy pattern.
