A message queue is a form of middleware used in software development to enable communications between services, programs, and dissimilar components, such as operating systems and communication protocols. A message queue enables the smooth flow of information to make complex systems work. Two styles of message queuing.

To benchmark a database we introduce the concept of a Virtual User. For this reason we need to implement our database sessions in the form of operating system threads. So having an application client mutex lock that artificially stalls our Virtual Users does not sound good. Basic Benchmarking Concepts. The Python GIL.

The protections are hardware implemented and cannot be forged in software. And this all has to work for whole-system executions, not just the C-language portion of user processes.
