Can someone explain to me why you would want to run deferred via a cron? I have a pretty busy forum and like Stuart have no shortage of users who will regularly trigger the deferred script in the normal way without a cron
I know I dont NEED this, my question was largely aimed a Stuart, who also has a busy board, but who is also, clearly cron'ing up the deferred process. You can simply ignore this sbj.
Is it better to spam it every second or run it once a minute? That's why.
 
I'm having a lot of issues (apparently) with deferred processes, which then are causing issues such as status update alerts not being sent for about an hour after posting. Will this help with that?
I followed @Chris D advice in this thread;
Incidentally, if you run the following query on your database it will tell you what tasks are currently running. If you're able to do that at a time where they consider resource usage to be "too high" then it might reveal specifically what process is causing it.

Code:
SELECT deferred_id, unique_key, execute_class, trigger_date FROM xf_deferred

And it shows one Cron entry that updates every few minutes.
Would this help with this situation?
