Any gotchas moving from RabbitMQ to nsq? Also, are you missing any features in nsq?

  didn't run into any gotchas, but I tested things very thoroughly before going into production. to the contrary- deploying static binaries (instead of the erlang environment) simplified things nicely, in my opinion. to be fair, i (personally) don't have the requisite experience tuning BEAM which probably biases my preference. while relatively high volume, our usage of RabbitMQ was straightforward and covered by the functionality offered in NSQ. like most, we were using AMQP.. so the switch to NSQ's concise wire protocol (and the associated reduction in pkt/s) saved us a lot of pain given the highly-variable performance we see in the EC2 network.
