Hi,

I'm a .Net developer and i'm currently working on a project that has a requirement of sending delayed msgs. So, I decided to make use of the 'x-delay' plugin for sending delayed msgs via the Exchange => MyQueue.

I wanted to know if i could give a max delay of like say 4-5 days. Would that be possible? and what would be the overhead if I'm looking at multiple msgs with similar delay?

(2^32)-1 milliseconds, which is ~ 49 days.

The limitations of the plugin are listed in its README:
