I'm currently trying to set up the delayed job solution, running into some problems but if I get it to work I think it will do the job, the importing will be done about once a day.
Since I'm on the topic I've tried to do the railscast setup from delayed job but both of the versions showed there dont do it for me the first one with the send_later method Download.new.send_later(:start), shows "undefined method `perform' for #<YAML::Object: ..." I load the config in environment.rb file (raw_config = File.read(RAILS_ROOT + "/config/config.yml") APP_CONFIG = YAML.load(raw_config)[RAILS_ENV]) the second option using a new class after jobs:work "Job failed to load: Unknown handler. Try to manually require the appropriate file."
