/**
* For application servers, {@code Connection} objects provide a special facility for creating a
* {@code ConnectionConsumer} (optional). The messages it is to consume are specified by a {@code Destination} and a
* message selector. In addition, a {@code ConnectionConsumer} must be given a {@code ServerSessionPool} to use for
* processing its messages.
*
*
* Normally, when traffic is light, a {@code ConnectionConsumer} gets a {@code ServerSession} from its pool, loads it
* with a single message, and starts it. As traffic picks up, messages can back up. If this happens, a
* {@code ConnectionConsumer} can load each {@code ServerSession} with more than one message. This reduces the thread
* context switches and minimizes resource use at the expense of some serialization of message processing.
