156- messages. The ``max_queue `` argument doesn't exist. The connection keeps at
157- most one message in memory at a time.
155+ * In the :mod: `threading ` implementation, ``max_queue `` has the same semantics
156+ as in the new :mod: `asyncio ` implementation. It is the high-water mark of a
157+ queue of incoming frames. It defaults to 16 frames. If the queue grows larger,
158+ the connection stops reading from the network until the application consumes
159+ messages and the queue goes below the low-water mark. This creates backpressure
160+ on the TCP connection.
161+
162+ Each item in the queue is a frame. A frame can be a message or a message
163+ fragment. Either way, it must be smaller than ``max_size ``, the maximum size
164+ of a message. The queue may use up to ``max_size * max_queue `` bytes of
165+ memory. By default, this is 16 MiB.
You can’t perform that action at this time.
