## Fraction of the high watermark limit at which queues start to
## page message out to disc in order to free up memory.
+## For example, when vm_memory_high_watermark is set to 0.4 and this value is set to 0.5,
+## paging can begin as early as when 20% of total available RAM is used by the node.
##
-## Values greater than 0.9 can be dangerous and should be used carefully.
+## Values greater than 1.0 can be dangerous and should be used carefully.
+##
+## One alternative to this is to use durable queues and publish messages
+## as persistent (delivery mode = 2). With this combination queues will
+## move messages to disk much more rapidly.
+##
+## Another alternative is to configure queues to page all messages (both
+## persistent and transient) to disk as quickly
+## as possible, see http://www.rabbitmq.com/lazy-queues.html.
