For 7 real computers, RabbitMQ is actually a better choice. You get
centralized management and the most battle-tested driver of all.
ZeroMQ is meant to remove the bottleneck and SPOF of a RabbitMQ cluster
from much larger systems by making the data path for messaging directly
peer-to-peer, but it still needs a central matchmaker database. So at
that scale, you're not really winning much by using it.
I can't really speak to the answers for your problems that you've seen,
but in general I'd expect Liberty and Mitaka on RabbitMQ to handle your
cluster size without breaking a sweat. Have you reported the errors as
bugs in oslo.messaging? That might be where to start:
