[jira] [Resolved] (AMQ-3326) Synchronization point in RegionBroker adding and removing producers and consumers

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AMQ-3326?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Timothy Bish resolved AMQ-3326.
-------------------------------

       Resolution: Fixed
    Fix Version/s: 5.6.0
         Assignee: Timothy Bish

Confirmed the serialization of calls into those methods is not needed when the inactivity purge is not running so a reader / writer lock is the correct choice.

> Synchronization blocks were added to the RegionBroker as a result of AMQ-2821 (automatic removal of inactive destinations). I believe the author was trying to prevent adding and removing producers while the inactive destination removal process was running.
> This is a major performance bottle neck in use case scenarios where many clients are subscribing and unsubscribing simultaneously -- specifically, in order to retrieve one and only one message from a queue using the STOMP protocol (without holding onto a prefetch message) you must subscribe, retrieve a message and then unsubscribe from the destination. This activity causes lots of adding and removing of producers and consumers.
> I'm still not entirely convinced that the destination removal process needs to be protected in that manner, but the attached patch uses a ReentrantReadWriteLock to continue to protect the destination removal process, while still allowing clients to add and remove producers and consumers concurrently when the destination process is not running.
> This patch also relates to AMQ-3070 (where the user was complaining about this same synchronization block).
> I'm attaching patches both for the trunk and for 5.4.2 (which is what I'm still using).
> There are other synchronization blocks further down in the code (inside AbstractRegion and Queue implementations), but in my particular use case, the 2-3x performance enhancement I get of this patch alone are enough to satisfy my immediate concerns.
