Description

I have some problems with multiple durable subscribers while persistent delivery is used.
Message should be deleted from disc storage (periodically) after all interested subscribers have received it. In case there was one durable subscriber everything woks just fine. However when I tested this scenerio with two durable subscribers on topic, the messages were never deleted (disc usage is continously consumed and never purged).

Test case description:
-using default activemq.xml configuration file from binary distribution
-TopicConsumers.java creates two separetes durable consumers
-textMessageFile.txt is file which text is sent by producer (place it on classpath)

Result:
-all messages there were send were also received by both subscribers
-after more then 100k messages data directory is about 1GB.
-restarting activemq with so big persistent storage takes very long time

• Intermittent Test failure: DuplexNetworkTest.testDurableStoreAndForward (org.apache.activemq.network) - java.lang.IllegalStateException: Message id ID:... could not be recovered from the data store - already dispatched: Resolved
• Durable consumers recovery: Resolved
