Startup time can be easily taken out of the equation by doing the work from a process that doesn't terminate when idle. Presumably you'll want such a thing when you introduce messaging anyway, so you could start by converting cron jobs to a process that polls frequently and convert it to receive messages when that's available. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~launchpad-dev More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
