[omniORB] omniEvents 2.6.0 (All new stable release)

We had done quite a bit of testing of omniEvents vs. some commercial JMS 
solutions and found omniEvents to be far superior.  At that point, we 
started working with Alex (since early this year) on adding a lot of the 
'enterprise' class features of omniEvents.  We absolutely rely on 
federation, performance, etc.... Currently, one of our flagship products 
uses omniEvents extensively for a call-center solution.  This solution has 
a service level of 99.999% availability and we've been able to meet that, 
along with the intensive performance objectives.

In the production environment, we're using omniEvents running at about 
50-74 msgs per second (which isn't that big by todays large systems). This 
system has been running reliably since mid August ... it draws < 5% CPU on 
a Sun V480 w/ 2 x 1.2 GHz CPU's. 

I hope this helped.

Has anyone done any performance testing with this new version?
