Number of topics?

Hi,

What do you think a reasonable number of topics is?

At the moment we have maybe 3-4 thousand and use about 1gb of memory.
However, I can see it would be an advantage to scale up as we define our
topic paths using asset names in the nodes. Some assets can be temporary.

We currently have available 4gb of memory. I realise we can make some
improvements like turning on thread pooling but not sure yet how much
difference this will make.

Thanks

Lionel

I was waiting for that response:)

Using Artemis 5.14.

Not looking for anything exact, just a guide of what might have been
achieved in the past like 10k, 100k, 1 million.

I think your question is a bit like asking, "How long should a piece of
string be?"  The answer is - it depends.  Without a lot more context it
will be difficult, if not impossible, to provide much help.

First point of context is...Which broker are you using?
