[David Lloyd (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WFLY-9524?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13490078#comment-13490078 ] 

David Lloyd commented on WFLY-9524:
-----------------------------------

With VMs/taskset/cgroups/etc. it is possible (and common) to have one (logical) CPU.

>             Project: WildFly
>          Issue Type: Enhancement
>          Components: JMS

> By default, size of client thread pool is configured as 8 * number of CPU cores.
> On 1 CPU machine, with default configuration and MDB deployed on server, resource starvation is possible
> On one CPU there are by default
> * 8 ActiveMQ client threads (8 * CPU count)
> * 4 MDB instances (mdb-strict-max-pool = 4 * CPU count)
> * 15 JCA RA sessions consuming messages from queue (default value of maxSession)
> Consuming of messages by MDB gets stuck because all 8 client threads are awaiting large message completion and there is no other thread to handle other tasks.

> This can be fixed by adjusting default values for these parameters.
> In this case, we need more client threads than JCA RA sessions (maxSession). 
> To avoid resource starvation, number of client threads must be greater than sum of {{maxSession}} for each MDB deployed on server.
> We should check number of client threads required by deployments (MDBs), and at least print warning message that size of client thread pool may be insufficient.
