Michael Piotrowski commented on AMQ-1853:
-----------------------------------------

I see a problem. I downloaded AMQ 5.6-SNAPSHOT, configured it and my ConnectionFactory (wrapped) bean looks like this:

<bean id="jmsConnectionFactory" class="org.apache.activemq.pool.PooledConnectionFactory"
		destroy-method="stop">
		<property name="connectionFactory">
			<bean class="org.apache.activemq.ActiveMQConnectionFactory">
				<property name="brokerURL">
					<value>${jms.broker.urls}</value>
				</property>
				
								
				<property name="redeliveryPolicy">
					<bean class="org.apache.activemq.RedeliveryPolicy">
						<property name="maximumRedeliveries" value="4"/>    
						<property name="initialRedeliveryDelay" value="3000"/>
						<property name="useExponentialBackOff" value="true"/>
					<property name="backOffMultiplier" value="2"/>						
					</bean>
				</property>
				
				<property name="nonBlockingRedelivery" value="true" />				
			</bean>
		</property>
	</bean>

The problem is that if 'nonBlockingRedelivery' is set to TRUE AFTER RedeliveryPolicy property, redelivering takes much more time than specified in RedeliveryPolicy object properties. On the other hand - while 'nonBlockingRedelivery' is put BEFORE declaration od RedeliveryPolicy - it takes under consideration only 'maximumRedeliveries' property - but with no delay and multiplier. That makes whole redelivery thing totally wrong - i got defult 6 requests one by one. 

Is this normal and expected behaviour? How can I achieve taking redeliveryPolicy properties to run?

> When a message is redelivered the consumer blocks for the amount of time specified by the redelivery delay. For a high load scenario where message order is irrelevant this is just reducing performance and will result in a complete halt if the delay is long and several bad messages are consumed in a short time. 
> I think what I basically wish for is how it worked in versions 3.x, prior to fix for AMQ-268. So I would very much like to have configurable option to NOT block consumers when redelivering messages. 
> If no-one feels up to it, I'd still appreciate some hints and I could try to fix it myself. Looking at ActiveMQMessageConsumer.rollback(), I was thinking something in the lines of just scheduling a task to put the message back on queue after a delay - if configured to, instead of stopping delivery and a schedule a task to resume delivery again. But I do not possess an understanding of AMQ thorough enough to predict potential side effects of this, so any analysis would be helpful.
