The cases that we are forced to send in sync mode are when persistent messages are being sent outside of a transaction.</p><p>If you are not using transactions and are sending persistent messages, then each send is synch and blocks until the broker has sent back an acknowledgement to the producer that the message has been safely persisted to disk. This ack provides that guarantee that the message will not be lost but it also costs a huge latency penalty since the client is blocked.</p><p>Many high performance applications are designed to be tolerate a small amount of message loss in failure scenarios. If your application has been designed in this fashion, you can enable the use of async sends to increase throughput even when using persistent messages.</p><h3 id="AsyncSends-ConfiguringAsyncSendusingaConnectionURI">Configuring Async Send using a Connection URI</h3><p>You can use the <a shape="rect" href="connection-configuration-uri.html">Connection Configuration URI</a> to configure async sends as follows</p><div class="code panel pdl" style="border-width: 1px;"><div class="codeContent panelContent pdl">
