[zeromq-dev] debugging performance problems

[Andrew Hume]

my reading of teh manual pages is that HWM has no effect on sending a message
(only if hwm is set for teh receivers).
on the other hand, when i set it in an experiment, it seemed to have an effect.
on the other other hand, i normally and doing fan-in fan-out on both sides
of my push/pull links, so an hwm on the sending side is problematic.
