But one question remains, at least for me: > Is there a maximum number of events w.r.t. the ordering in a queue? Yes. Your client buffer can have any size, but the events stored in the kernel for a queue are sent from an interrupt handler and must therefore be in locked kernel memory. The kernel buffer is currently restricted to 2000 events for one client. Regards, Clemens ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
