[jira] [Created] (DISPATCH-11) Remove all the Dispatch tunables; we
have no idea if they're important
Ted Ross created DISPATCH-11:
--------------------------------
Summary: Remove all the Dispatch tunables; we have no idea if they're important
Key: DISPATCH-11
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DISPATCH-11
Project: Qpid Dispatch
Issue Type: Improvement
Affects Versions: 0.1
Reporter: Ted Ross
A car has a simple interface: steering, gear selection, lights,
wipers. Those things are important to drivers.
A car also has another interface, for car mechanics: valve timing,
fuel-air mix, and more stuff I'm pretending I know about.
Dispatch's config is currently confronting drivers with things only
car mechanics should have to care about: "worker-threads",
"hello-interval", "hello-max-age", "ra-interval",
"remote-ls-max-age", "mobile-addr-max-age".
That's the wrong bias. It's much to be preferred that we, the
people developing the software, discover ways to provide good
defaults that don't require tunables. Then, only when we face a
particular need and no way to handle it seamlessly, should we
consider exposing config for it.
Build it for drivers, not car mechanics.
