We have pushed small messages through and were able to process to the tune of between 20-30 messages per second. We have also set up a socket connection between the two sites using nothing but TCL in the outbound TPS (not a great option for production but we wanted to see what it would do) and found that the socket communications itself is not a bottleneck. I assume (hate to say that) that there is some sort of configurable parameter that we can modify that will give us access to the socket options in order to tune things. I say this because the TCL allows use to use fconfigure to set parameters and an external java application would allow us to call a setSockOptions on the socket.
If there is not a configurable parameter of some sort for this purpose, we are going to end up performing this function outside of cloverleaf and I would REALLY like to avoid that.
