Would your company be willing to fund the development? Or would you be willing to post a PR? We would be happy to take a look.

We are waiting on demand for it. We have a bunch of folks using MQTT on NATS and NGS but no requests yet for MQTTv5 so far. Once we see legit demand we will make sure it's supporte…

We have some great work coming that allows lighter weight consumers to scale to that level and beyond. Happy to chat with folks on how we can make that work today.

I think entropy, in however you measure it, does influence something like a UUID generator differently than the cryptographic algorithms. What you are trying to achieve, or more im…

I agree, was simply sharing because it was a need we had, which might be a need someone else had as well. Anyone can feel free to use it or not.

I disagree, either the entropy is drained and the randomness of what the pool returns (based on OS) is compromised or you get stalled waiting for more of it and decrease performanc…

Yes, but most UUID when moved across networks are translated to hex, so 32 bytes/characters whereas NUID's are 22 bytes, so generally a savings of 10 bytes per when stored as a str…

UUID V4 is ~900ns/op, NUID is ~60ns/op, so 15X speedup, or 1500%.

I am deeply saddened by this news. I remember trying to convince Ezra to join us to help out with CloudFoundry. I, like others, knew Ezra through the Ruby community where he was a …

The test is specific to a new NATS server written in GO (gnatsd). I described in more detail above the tests and what they do, but suffice it to say that it does test the message p…

It is not, but its on my TODO list, and I have also observed similar behavior at times. I have taken care to make sure the synchronization is efficient, but running the test is nee…

Comment #4887157
It is not one big write, but optimizations around msgs/write using buffering are used in clients, with obvious care to balance latency and throughput. In the benchmark, the write b…

That is correct, I am only attempting to measure the efficiency of the messaging processing engine within the server. I did want to include the network stack and the buffering port…

The simple benchmark is testing throughput of a messaging system, specifically a new server written in Go. Both the client and server are on the same machine, but going over a tcp/…
