<p>The default delay is 5 seconds and rate limit of 1 msg/second, but both can be configured.</p>
<p>When set to rate limit messages, they are spread across the configured time period. It can
also be set to discard any intermediate messages that arrive.</p>
<p>The "topic based fair queue" adds messages to a release queue tagged by their <b>msg.topic</b> property.
At each "tick", derived from the rate, the next "topic" is released.
Any messages arriving on the same topic before release replace those in that position in the queue.
