Haha, good thing I don't work in a call center, or I'd be constantly getting spike arrests! 5 calls per second? That's like lightning fast!

D is just wrong. The 'continueOnError' setting means the message will continue processing even if the spike arrest is triggered. That's the opposite of what it's saying.

B is definitely true. If you have multiple message processors, the spike arrest would be calculated separately on each one, so you could easily exceed the 5 per second limit.

A and C seem correct. The policy clearly states the rate is 5 per second, so anything above that would be rejected.
