-With the traditional Wire Tap, Camel will copy the original Exchange and set its Exchange Pattern to InOnly, as we want the tapped Exchange to be sent in a fire and forget style. The tapped Exchange is then sent in a separate thread so it can run in parallel with the original. Beware that only the Exchange is copied - Wire Tap won't do a deep clone. So all copies could share objects from the original Exchange.
-Camel also provides an option of sending a new Exchange allowing you to populate it with new values.
