[zeromq-dev] Delayed Reception of messages when using Multicast Method (Using PGM)

[Divya Mohan]

Hi Steve,

You are right. When I tried using one port per subscriber, there was no
delay in message reception.

But I am looking for a broadcast mechanism where all the processes (max 10)
can send/receive messages with each other.
Is this possible? Please share your valuable suggestions.

Thanks,
Divya
