The reply from danneu is right; but more specifically you should set up a worker process type if you've got enough work to keep a process busy full-time or if you need a quicker turnaround time for the work you're sending it. A scheduled process will be cheaper in terms of time consumed, so if you're not currently bothered by its limitations you should probably stick with it. Either a worker or a scheduled process can use a queue to get its jobs, or it can get it from a DB if the volume is low. -Phil -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
