Thanks, however, I was hoping that with "-b" that beanstalk would not still keep all the on-disk contents in RAM.
Even with durability on, writing 100,000 512 byte jobs to beanstalk is consuming 109MB of RAM. I was laboring under what appears to be a bad assumption that beanstalk would not keep every job in RAM when I'm using durable queues.
