|
|
|

### 3.6.x Series Support Timeline
|

|
|
### Core Server
|
|
|
|
#### Bug Fixes
|
|
|
|
* Memory usage monitor uses subprocesses a lot more sparingly. They are started
|
|
roughly once a second or not started at all, depending on the strategy (e.g. on Windows
|
|
Erlang VM allocator information is used instead).

|
|
|
|
* Very busy queues are now more efficient at prioritizing consumers, avoiding
|
|
consumer delivery blocking when relatively long running operations (e.g. bulk flushing
|
|
of transient messages to disk) happen.
