Hello Timothy,

That explains the count of threads upon debugging. I already thought that
may be the case, but its good to have it confirmed.

But with a queue there would be a problem that if a subscriber gets
offline due networking reasons, the messages would stack until a memory
error occurs, or?

And with a "Blocking Queue" you mean simply a sync Queue or? Are there
samples for this?

Thanks for the help!
