JMS is about topic management, queue management, message persistence, 
and reliable distribution in a complex environment prone to failures.  
If you don't need any of that, like a log host, you'll be much happier 
with a plain socket.  If you do need that stuff you probably want a JMS 
implementation rather than writing it yourself.

JMS services are typically very heavy weight.  Memory and disk space are 
needed to buffer data to nodes that temporarily fall behind or go 
offline.  Configuration can take a while too.
