Difference between MERGE and DISTINCT subscription modes

[tvhnet2013]

Hi Dario,

As you stated in point #2 in DISTINCT mode: "each historical observation can be carried by a pseudo-update". How does frequency "Update per Second for Each Item" work here?

Can client receive all historical observations at once or one by one by each second?

Thanks.

Hi tvhnet2013,

In DISTINCT mode all the events belonging to the snapshot are sent to the client in an unfiltered dispatching fashion, despite the frequency and buffer size limits operating for normal updates.
