AttributeDescription
Total QueuedTotal number of email actions queued
Total CompletedTotal number of email actions completed
Currently on Queue

Total number of email actions queued for processing. 

If you experience that hundreds or thousands of items are waiting on the queue as an average, consider increasing the number of worker threads.

Active Worker ThreadsCurrent number of active worker threads processing the email actions.
Average Time in Queue (ms)

Average time of the last 100 email actions spent on the queue.

Time metric exludes the default queue delay.

Maximum Worker Threads
Maximum number of worker threads to process the email actions.
Number may vary from 0 to 64.


Note
title0 threads

Setting the maximum worker threads to 0 disables asynchronous processing.

Email actions will then be processed synchronously.


Maximum number of items waiting on the queue

This is the maximum number of items on the mail queue. 

Although the items on the queue are small (less than 10Kbyte each), the more items are waiting on the queue (as per the Currently on Queue value above), the more memory is allocated.

Theoretically this may lead to Out Of Memory errors putting the system stability at risk. Therefore a hard limitation is introduced to prevent this.

Even the largest Jira instances have normally not more than a few hundred items on the queue as an average.

If you experience this constantly, consider increasing the number of worker threads.
