Eliminate rollback delay in Message Broker

Message Broker currently has a built-in delay of 1 second on the message rollback path. As per the referenced PMR, this delay is the mechanism used to allow time for internal object reset and to prevent processor swamping in case of message loops. I have the following request related to this:

1. Instead of depending on a timer or delay for resetting of internal state, broker should actively monitor such state and complete the rollback activity as soon as feasible.

2. For preventing processor and log saturation, it may be useful to have a delay in the requeue path. However it should be configurable, at least in the following ways:

a. Allow the delay duration to be configurable.
b. Allow specifying the message backout count after which the delay kicks in

This will allow the product users to determine appropriate parameters based on experienced resource usage and throughput.

Additionally I would like a discussion of this topic to be available in broker documentation. Currently this information is not documented, which can lead clients to depend on broker's rollback mechanism without realizing they are incurring a delay per failed message.

    Thanks for raising. A rather advanced configuration option, but one that could provide utility for some customers nonetheless! We'll look at adding this to a future release.
