Hi @srdjan9791, thanks for the suggestion!
We just completed some testing over the last few days and I was meaning to come back and up date this as well -
I read some other posts that indicated that multiple crons would end up sending duplicate emails, so that made me a little nervous. I tried using some of the suggested scripts out there that manage things with a lock file and flock, but those weren’t increasing our send rate. I’m not sure if the duplication issue was only when using the standard queue settings?
We only send segment emails at the moment, so my understanding is that the only cron that works here is the messenger:consume email. boadcast:send doesn’t appear to read from the messenger_messages table? Or at least when I had that cron running, no emails went out.
Since I moved to rabbitMQ instead of the messenger_messages table, I started using supervisor to spin up additional workers. With this we were able to get up to 3 or 4 emails a second running 3 or 4 workers.
I would assume that I could accomplish the same things with the multiple crons you suggested with rabbitMQ and still avoid duplicates as well, but I like the additional control with supervisor, at least as we are still testing out Mautic.
