Project Board

TBD

Version 11.0.x (WIP)

• Look into how we can add concurrency and support more than 10 messages (WIP PR: feat: adding the ability to execute the consumer concurrently #449)
  • A possible implementation with statsq was raised here: add support for processing more than 10 messages concurrently #271 but it would be good to think about what our options are before committing to something
  • Another option for this might be to simply allow the user to provide their own polling function, and not consider handling this at all
  • Some thought should be taken into if people actually want / need this, a discussion has been opened here.
