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.
