Hey Rob

Thanks very much for this. I'd like to try this in our unit tests, which 
is the first place we've been running into these problems (testing a 
slow consumer with "fake" data, which is produced very fast).

Is there a way to configure policies using the broker URL or in the 
queue/topic name (after the ?) from code? For our unit tests, we're 
currently using an embedded broker, so this would makes things 
relatively simple. Alternatively, is there a way to make an embedded 
broker parse XML configuration somehow?

Thanks again.

Cheers,

Albert
