Yes but isn’t this a bit like comparing git / bitkeeper vs subversion / perforce?

Basically, one is decentralized and you can set up a massively parallel architecture, with eg each topic or subthread having its own pubsub.

The other is a monolithic centralized pubsub architecture.

You could argue that git in large institutional projects converges to a monolithic repo so at that point it’s less efficient even than svn.

But for most use cases, ZeroMQ would allow far more flexible distributed systems topologies and solutions. No?
