I've been working with ejabberd for some time now, but due to some recent issues and requirements, I'm curious about something.
If I create a MUC room with 2 users in it, does it differ from normal 1-to-1 chat messaging (performance wise)?
What happens if I always use MUCs for all 1to1 chats?
Does it have any performance overheads or disadvantages?
Do my connections suffer from performance penalties, and does this generally consume more resources or impose any kind of restrictions or penalties?
Any help or insights would be much appreciated.
