MassTransit 3 RabbitMQ Message Throughput

aaa.md

The message throughput of MassTransit using RabbitMQ, compared to the "one-way" RPC used in the test published at RestBus.

The send rate of MassTransit doing non-durable messages to RabbitMQ is 8,881 per second The consume rate of those same messages is 8,881 per second.

That's a sustained message throughput over 100,000 messages (5,000 per client thread, the same as the test linked above).

So, to be fair, there is no performance difference between the two in practice.

Test Machine

Tests were run from the console on a 2015 Razor Blade 14, quad-core i7 with 16GB of RAM and a 256GB SSD.
