How well did this work?

Hi @mattmanning, I was wondering if you ever used this in production or what you moved to instead of this. I was thinking about doing something similar, even with the same name :-)

It worked as a proof of concept, but it's definitely nowhere near production-ready. This was sort of an experimental project, so I didn't really move on to anything similar. I would like to revisit it at some point, though.

In the real world, I've had a lot of success using Sidekiq for highly parallel background work in Ruby.
