[zeromq-dev] Odd numbers with zeromq

[Maninder Batth]

Paul,
With messages being sent one way, via pub and sub sockets, i am getting a
very decent performance. About 80% of our network gets saturated.
The code is zserver.cpp and zclient.cpp

But if i configure the software such that client only sends the next
message, after it has received a response from the server, the throughput
 is really bad.
The code is zserver-ack1.cpp  and zclient-ack1.cpp
The difference is that in the former case, i can get 110k messages per
second , whereas in the latter case,  i can only get 1k messages per second.
The sockets that i use in latter case are of type REQ and REP. Am i using
wrong sockets type ?
