minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink1•7 months agoUmm, queueing is standard practice particularly when a task is performance intensive and needs limited resources. Basically any programming language using any kind of asynchronous runtime is using queues in their scheduler, as well.

minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink3•7 months agoAh gotcha, fair enough. Definitely depends on the workload. If you have compute you want to dedicate to solely to a single task, have at it.
