I've been using the Python client provided by the Mosquitto project in
production.
My environment is Linux and I'm processing ~ 12,000,000 messages per day.

I've been chasing some intermittent broken pipe (32)  exceptions using the
Mosquitto client without much luck, so I recently decided to swap in the
Paho Python client and see if the same errors occur.  So far the broken
pipe error has not recurred but it's early days - sometimes the error only
occurs once in a few hours, sometimes more frequently.

The Paho code seems to work well.

Before I get too invested in changing to the Paho client...

Are there any advantages / disadvantages for either of the clients?

Are there any significant implementation differences?

Are there any notable performance differences?  So far I haven't seen any
significant differences in CPU utilisation.

Thanks;
