Job queues look like exactly what I'm looking for. I missed them in the api. 
Thanks.

I've been trying to launch one using some of the properties but it doesn't seem 
to launch. Can they just fail silently without throwing exceptions?

The props are:
props {event.job.priority=NORM, event.job.retries=5, 
property.user_id=100004152510575, event.job.run.local=true, 
event.job.retrydelay=30000, topic.update.sub=user.initial.update, 
event.job.parallel=10, event.job.
queuename=user.queue}

If I remove event.job.* properties it works fine, just not in the way I want it 
to run.
