MQSeries.net :: View topic - Avoid specifying localhost when using MQ client connection.

trbryant

I have been working on a Java application on MQSeries 5.3 and discovered that GET performance for a large (1 meg) message is significantly different depending on how I specify the hostname.

If I use "localhost" as the hostname the return from the "get" method can take almost two minutes for a large message. If I use the actual host name for my machine the get method will return substantially faster, down to around 2 or 3 seconds! The application doesn't appear to get CPU or disk bound. It just seems to fall asleep for a long time.

Hope this helps!
