Hi,

Is it limit to add channels in nginx pushstream (long pooling)? and in case i did't close channel what happen?

Thanks Pokal4u

The number of channels are limited by the amount of shared memory you configured, and to the limit of max_channels, if you use it. The channels are collected after the inactivity time, you don't need to explicitly "close" it. If you have a configuration with a big inactivity time, or a big message ttl you may reach the memory limit sooner than expected.
