RabbitMQ and persistence (blocking writes?)
- by daharon
I want to create a RabbitMQ server on a virtual machine (VMware) to be used in production.
It will contain persistent queues.
I'm wondering if it is a bad idea to store the server on a NAS that's accessed over NFS.
Basically my questions are:
Will RabbitMQ's writes be blocking?
Will the entire queue's operation halt on a write?
How much performance degradation should I expect when persisting over NFS?
