title: Using Rabbitmq or Hornetq for a high traffic chat component
body: <p>I'm working on building a high-traffic chat component for an application, and decided to build it atop a message queue, which I narrowed down to these two: Hornetq and Rabbitmq. </p>
  
  <ol>
  <li><p>Does anyone have any opinions regarding which would be a better choice? (I plan on also coding a server that will site between the queue and users for websocket and comet tasks using java nio)</p></li>
  <li><p>Can anyone point me to some good information on message throttling algorithms using these technologies?</p></li>
  </ol>
