[jira] Commented: (SYNAPSE-434) Concurrency level provided by the
mail and VFS transports listeners is insufficient
[ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SYNAPSE-434?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12685418#action_12685418 ]
Asankha C. Perera commented on SYNAPSE-434:
-------------------------------------------
The reason I did this was to actually prevent concurrent processing by Mail, VFS etc., where we do not want to say process the same file/email by two threads concurrently.. Do you have a proposed solution to prevent that?

> Key: SYNAPSE-434
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SYNAPSE-434
> Project: Synapse
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Transports
> Affects Versions: 1.2
> Reporter: Andreas Veithen
> Assignee: Andreas Veithen
> Priority: Minor
>
> Scenario:
> * Two services are configured to use the (mail or VFS) transport.
> * Two messages are sent two each of these services.
> In this case, one would expect that the transport listener will be able to process at least 2 (better 4) messages concurrently. However the listener currently only processes one message at a time, i.e. the listener behaves as if it was single-threaded.
> There are two reasons for this:
> 1. AbstractPollingTransportListener contains the following code:
> workerPool.execute(new Runnable() {
> public void run() {
> synchronized (pollLock) {
> pollInProgress = true;
> try {
> onPoll();
> } finally {
> pollInProgress = false;
> }
> }
> }
> });
> Since pollLock is a member of AbstractPollingTransportListener, there can only be one poll in progress at a time, even if several services are configured to use the transport (in which case nothing would prevent the transport from executing the polls for the different services in parallel).
> 2. Both MailTransportListener and VFSTransportListener process incoming messages sequentially. Here again, the transport could process several messages in parallel during the execution of the onPoll method.
