I'm trying to get an idea of how multiple instances of the firehose-to-syslog app nozzle will interact

Does the firehose act like a queue in the sense that once a nozzle reads a message its gone from the hose and if there are multiple nozzles will only one nozzle will read each message at a time? For example, if the messages in the firehose are A, B, C, and D and two nozzles alternate then the first nozzle will read A and C and the 2nd nozzle will read B and D. If either nozzle goes down while reading a message then that message will be lost, but then that nozzle won't take any more messages.

Thanks,
