Hi Marc, Thanks for the response. I suspected that the mutexes shouldn't use much CPU. Could be an issue in my implementation. Time to write a small demo program.

The client and server in this case are on two separate dual cpu systems. The client produces the Widgets and the server consumes them.

The server side thread pool is set to around 40.

The invocations to consume are oneway and I've also tried tagging the consume method as ["ami"], but this did not change the results.

I've also tried running the code without the mutexes, and cpu utilization and performance goes up, but the results are incorrect. I can't be sure what is going on in this case.
