Nope, and my scheduler runs all of 8 tasks a day (creeping up to 16), so I've hardly pushed the limit. But I would look at just running web2py instances on those other servers, and having the "master" do nothing more than send https requests to each of them, and each local scheduler then deals with its own workers only. Not quite like sharding on Elastisearch, but definitely division of labor. If Niphlod was still monitoring the group, that would get you the best comments on the in-box scheduler. He's the expert -- wrote the current scheduler and the test suite, runs databases on diverse systems (including MSSQL behind IIS, IIRC). He also did the JWT implementation. /dps -- Resources: - http://web2py.com - http://web2py.com/book (Documentation) - http://github.com/web2py/web2py (Source code) - https://code.google.com/p/web2py/issues/list (Report Issues) --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.
