Yeah. I've experimented in rstatus having a rake task perform a job and hooking that into the response stack somewhere. It really isn't doing much work, just work that shouldn't be done during a response. It would be nice if it occasionally does work either in a separate thread on the web dyno or after an http request is delivered. Either way, it just needs to run the rake task or directly invoke delayed_job or w/e. Essentially, for the single account case, a separate process queue is a bit silly.
