Can anyone suggest me good values for these both channel attributes? BATCHSZ and BATCHINTL? We are using a request/reply kind of mechanism where in the response recieved for every request is typically in thousands. The platform is Solaris communicating with a MainFrame.
Thanks.

For request/reply channel types you typically set the batch interval to 0. The purpose is to let the channel close the batch of message as fast as possible (as soon as there is no message left on the transmission queue or the batch size is reached) to ensure optimal response time.
(On the other hand for batch channels you could increase the batch interval value to some seconds)
The batch size is a harder one. When too small, the batches are smaller so you could expect a lower latency time; however you create a significant overhead of continuously transmitting and closing batches. When too high, you minimize the overhead but increase the time of latency.
